Andrea I get this with the latest version:

Command: dil

(T)ext/(M)text ?<M>: t

Do you want Multiple Object Selection ?(Y)es/(N)o ?<YES>: n

Text: Lee Mac

Select Object...
Pick Text location...
bad argument type: 2D/3D point: nil

Just tried clicking on a closed LWPolyline...

One thing I do notice, you write a lot of registry keys with the program, I count about 5... is this really necessary? I suppose it doesn't matter too much with todays machines, but I was always advised not to bloat the registry too much

Lee,..you'r right,
this was just to keep the Config settings..

but maybe it will be better to write on a text file ?
I think that way will be useful to share config via network and user will not loose there settings each time they change the PC.
Is that make sence ?


Seb...Thanks ! I'm glad that you like the program.

Good idea with the Text File - or maybe just one registry key with the information in a list?

excellent idea with the text file.
being able to write out all settings to an ini, etc. that could be placed on the network would be the best option.

i thought you could only write strings to the registry? then you would have to comma delineate it before writing to registry and converting to list for processing, or am i wrong about the registry?

great idea to combine everything.

Hi Andrea,
does not work:
 
Pick Text location...
bad argument type: 2D/3D point: nil

  ;;Create leader point
(if (> (distance int urpoint) (distance int ulpoint))....
"urpoint" is nil and "ulpoint" is nil


into dilconfig function and createdildialog function
"(strcat (getvar "SAVEFILEPATH") "dlconfig.dcl")"
is "D:\\Tempdlconfig.dcl"
adding "\\" write the correct file name path
"(strcat (getvar "SAVEFILEPATH")"\\" "dlconfig.dcl")"
is "D:\\Temp\\dlconfig.dcl"

regards

I would vl-princ-to-string a list and write it to the registry, then read it when retrieving - but the text file seems like the best option.

Hi....

First,..welcome to theswamp ! 

Hi Andrea,
does not work:
 
Pick Text location...
bad argument type: 2D/3D point: nil

At this point,...what kind of object entity you have selected ? 

  ;;Create leader point
(if (> (distance int urpoint) (distance int ulpoint))....
"urpoint" is nil and "ulpoint" is nil

some variable are local and will aways return nil at the end if they was nil

into dilconfig function and createdildialog function
"(strcat (getvar "SAVEFILEPATH") "dlconfig.dcl")"
is "D:\\Tempdlconfig.dcl"
adding "\\" write the correct file name path
"(strcat (getvar "SAVEFILEPATH")"\\" "dlconfig.dcl")"
is "D:\\Temp\\dlconfig.dcl"

I do not understand..why you don't have the "\\" at the end...

I have think about it yesterday..
but I think that can't make big diffrence..
because I need to save the Path of the configuration text file (ini) in the registry...lol !
or maybe to another local text file who have information of the network path location...ah !

have it in a support path, with additional options.

(or (findfile "blah.ini")
     (vl-registry-read
     (vl-registry-write
)

I am getting this error too no matter what kind of object I select, but I am using Autocad 2005.  Although I don't remember what the exact reason is, I seem to recall an explanation as to why your other dynamic routines (dhatch, dcloud, etc.) will not function correctly in older versions.  Perhaps this is part of his problem?
