Title: Label polylines elevation
Post by: Scott on October 14, 2006, 01:04:43 AM

Hello everyone,

I'm sure this has been addressed in the past, but I can't seem to find what I need when searching, so here we go.

I need a lisp routine that will allow me to pick a polyline and label the elevation of said polyline along the polyline at user specified intervals.  I'm using MAP 5.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Scott

Scott, I thought MAP could do that with an existing command? I don't have MAP
but am remembering a past thread. Maybe it was Civil I'm remembering.

I'm sure I've seen more on the subject but this is all I could find this morning.

The routine to label the polyline nodes with the elevation is pretty much what I'm looking for, but I would like to be able to set the distance to label the polyline and have the elevation parallel to the polyline.

Thanks for the input,


Scott

You need to look at this command.

Code: [Select]

(vlax-curve-getPointAtDist curve-obj dist)Can you modify the lisp?

I have no clue how to modify lisp.  I wouldn't know where to begin.
