Hi all,
Many years ago (back on the cadalyst forums) I wrote, with the help of some of the chaps there, a very basic routine that automated the plot dialog setting box.
I used it to apply one off plot settings to drawings. You know the sort of thing, choose a plotter, paper size, extents, scale, draft settings ...all of that good stuff.
I have some sheetset overrides that work pretty well, but this is just for those one off drawings that won't need to be added to a sheetset, or have a whole new one created for it.
I now have cad with Lisp again and thought I'd dig out this crude, but useful tool, from my archives of junk.
Alas, it is no more. I cannot find it anywhere. And for the life of me I cannot remember where to start with calling the plot dialog, how to cycle through available paperspace tabs and apply the predetermined settings (a1 is the most common here).
So, can anyone give me some ideas (I don't want anyone's code), but a push in the right direction with some of the commands I need to look for would be a real help to get this off the ground again. Failing that, suggestions for another way of applying plot settings to drawings that don't need a sheetset file would be a help.
Ta.
