Entmake fitted polyline
« on: September 30, 2014, 06:26:48 AM »
Just wondering how to entmake a fitted polyline.

I have it making a polyline through a list of points but not sure how to make it fitted.

Thanks

It's not an answer directly to your question, but maybe it can be of interest...

I don't think it would be logical due to the added vertices (70 . 1) in the vertex definitions.   The the polyline must be defined by the control points and then the fit process can be determined. 

Maybe (entmake) the pline with the control point list and then (command "_.PEDIT" (entlast) "_Fit" "_X")

Thanks for the solution.

I couldn't get it to work for some strange reason as I have just upgraded to 2015.

Eventually worked out that I needed to change to "command-s" and it worked perfectly.

Thanks again

vl-cmdf is not the same as command-s... Me thinks that for A2015 you need to use only commans-s and vl-cmdf will fail... Don't know but just loud thinking... I am using A2014... vl-cmdf is used when wanted return after execution of command to be T instead of nil...
