Create a Lisp help for Grading site plans

Create a Lisp help for Grading site plans

(OP)
I need to know how hard it is to create a lisp which will do the following:

1 - Pick a place on the drawing which places a leader or spot X.

2 - Then Prompts for an Elevation XXX.XX with a rectangle around it.

3 - Then takes the XXX.XX value and adds .50 to it and places it above the value which was entered in a block

4 - finally, user pics a place for the block to be placed with the leader or line which connects the block to the spot X.

hope that s not confusing!  thanks!

RE: Create a Lisp help for Grading site plans

Do you mean the object is block ?
Form Step 3 to Step 4, I am not clear.
And it use for survey ?

Yes you are right... it is used for survey to sight work for plans... you choose a place to for your spot elevation... Then you place where you want your elevation # XXX.XX to apear. Then after that, it adds a # .50 to that XXX.XX, and places it in a rectangle with the line in the middle of it where the higher grade XXX.50 is up top, and XXX.XX is on the bottom of the rectangle...

You might consider a VB interface;
-Click on ACAD point
-Program prompts for elevation
-Program draws label and leader
-Repeat from top
