Can anyone draw a helix?
Can anyone draw a helix?
(OP)
I use AutoCAD 2004 and I am trying to draw a 3D helix object, like a spring or threads on a screw. I have good experiance with the 3D modeling commands, but can't figure this one out.
Thanks

Hey. Thanks for the link. I'm not really sure where to put this file. Sorry .lsp extensions are new to me. My best guess would be the path ...\AutoCAD 2004\Sample\VisualLISP\reactors. Am I close?
Thanks again. I can't wait to show my coligues that I've worked this out.

Enter "options" at the command line.
Go to "Files" tab > "Support File Search Path" > "Add" button > "Browse" button. Find your new folder to add it to the support path.
FYI: There are dozens of "spiral" and "helix" routines, but that is the easiest to use by far because it has a dialog box.

I had to read up alitte on Lisp files, but I got it to work. Thats opened a whole new world for me.
