is there a lisp out there, i am sure there is, that allows you to insert a block into a polyline area. i have the spacing of the blocks, but i want to fill the polyline with blocks so if i pick the line, it will insert say 30 blocks in that area...
(im a plant geek) and this would allow me to draw a plant bed and insert the symbol for the plant in the beds and place them triangularly so i dont have to place each one individually.
i was looking for a lisp to do this, but i dont know what to ask for in the search box.
any help would be apprecieated.
thanks

Try SuperHatch ... it is part of the expresstools and allows you to create a hatch using a block of your choosing

yeah, tried that, not what i want.
that lets you assign a shape to a hatch pattern. eventually, i would like to count them all and have a quantity of all the plants. i know i saw it somewhere, i just cant find it. i looked at the thread about the "free" lisp routines and again, didnt know what to ask for.
i tried polyline fill, polyline, block insert, replacing a polyline area with a block, etc...nothing...nada.
i just want to pick a polyline and infill the area with a block (setting a spacing to it and let it just fill in that area with as many as it takes to fill the area at that spacing).

Take a look at the gardenpath tutorial.

i will, i was just fishing for information as to the location of the lisp...i tried HTH, but since he passed, finding it is difficult. if anyone knows where the lisp might be, i would appreciate it. i assume it is not hard to write one, but i havent written in years.
i will keep looking for the lisp. if anyone comes across it, flip it to me, thanks
