March's Lisp of the Month

If you combine AutoCAD geometry of mixed English and Metric types, you will find this program useful.

No more trying to scale mixed english-metric linetypes in the drawing. The only action is to select the linetype definition file: Linetype definition [English/Iso]:

English uses acad.lin
Iso uses acadiso.lin

The program loads in all the linetype definitions and purges those not currently used.

If you do not wish to delete unused linetypes place a semicolon; in front of the code that ends with ; purge unused linetypes

January's Lisp of the Month

My routine will determine the scale of the hatch pattern, the rotation angle needed, and if the drawing is in metric or imperial (i.e.. determines the measurement setting). With my routine, you simply pick the corners representing the rigid insulation, and the routine will create a rigid insulation symbol using the "dash" hatch pattern.
