Toggle Variables?
« on: January 28, 2005, 04:02:36 PM »
Using a macro, is there a way to toggle a variable?

Example: Gripblock: toggle between 0 and 1

*Edit* I ment 0 - 1 not 1 - 2  :roll:

Do you mean between 0 and 1?

Try this for a button

Code: [Select]
(setvar "GRIPBLOCK" (- 1 (getvar "GRIPBLOCK")))

or for a command line version

Code: [Select]
(defun c:GB ()
(setvar "GRIPBLOCK" (- 1 (getvar "GRIPBLOCK")))
(princ)
)

Like this?

Command: (setvar "GRIPBLOCK" (boole 6 (getvar "GRIPBLOCK") 1))
1

Command: (setvar "GRIPBLOCK" (boole 6 (getvar "GRIPBLOCK") 1))
0


* Edit:
Sorry, i should prolly use the Var. you wanted to use in my example. I fixed my example to use the variable you used in your question.)

Yeah thats what I ment, 0-1.

I need it done without the use of LISP. Most computers here have AutoCAD LT.

I wish everbody had it, it would make my life a lot easier! Maybe soon. :roll:

Hey Dommy, Re-read my first post. (using Boole is a much cleaner way to do what your doing in that statement.)

I didnt give you a diesel command. But if you read that page cloesly, youll get lead to this page with gives you the syntax of each diesel command.

Follow the links on that page and you can get some really cool ideas. He even gives examples so im sure you can figure out how to toggle the variable.

I'm sorry. I didn't realize you didn't have one yet. All you needed to do was add ^C^C in front of (setvar "GRIPBLOCK" (- 1 (getvar "GRIPBLOCK"))) in my first post.

Code: [Select]
^C^C(setvar "GRIPBLOCK" (- 1 (getvar "GRIPBLOCK")))
