Want is the command (in the commandline) to generate a section/elavation?
Seems like it can only be done with right-click the mouse :(

Well, in ADT/MEP it's BldgSectionLineGenerate and there's also the regular SECTION command.

Not sure what you're looking for or what vertical (if any) you're using.

I just hate when commands can not be entered in the command line, only with right mouse click :(

Hi Lammerts
Please write to members that "1- what kind of sections you need (cross or longitudinal) 2- what applications (for example : road constructions - water or other transmition with pipe or cutting mineral masses ...) 3- which format you want ( lisp - vba - .net ... )" , perhaps I can help you or give to other dear members an idea for change my codes for you ..., so please write it ...  :kewl:

It is a normal procedure.
First you make a 'sectionplane' , command:sectionplane (sounds logical)
next step. Export this section to a block. I hope you get the picture.

Not sure what you get via the RCLICK MENU that is special, but SECTION is what comes to my mind.

Doesn't the command show up at the command line when you pick it from the context menu?  All the commands I'm firing from the menu right now do so.  Watch the command line when you hit it, and see if it's spitting it out down there for you to remember.

You should press F1 more often: SECTIONPLANETOBLOCK

The conclusion is justified that the initialization of the development of critical subsystem optimizes the probability of success to the development of the technical behavior over a given period.

I may be a little behind the times here. (still using Autocad 2004).

I always use the "solview" command to draw ortho, aux and section views.

What is ADT/MEP?

*This* is the golden rule of AutoCAD.  In the command line lies the magic, and the power.

You ain't lyin' there. I've reduced a majority of my work just by knowing the commandline and creating shorter commands. Not to mention the increased real estate I've gained by turning off all those derned toolbars.  :-)

Maybe a little late but
MEP = AutoCad MEP(MechanicalElectricalPiping) Link
ADT Architectural Desktop Which I have never seen but is now AutoCAD Architecture Link
