Title: VP Freezing all layers that are turned off
Post by: Bmossman on October 04, 2017, 09:27:28 AM

I am trying to VPFREEZE all layers that are currently turned off in the active viewport only. Does anyone have a routine that accomplishes this?

You'll need a few steps.

1) Create a list of layers which are turned off
2) Process each layer by freezing it
3) Increase productivity
4) ...
5) ...
6) Profit!

Thank you for the responses. Is it possible to issue the VPLAYER command that will VPFREEZE in lieu of freezing? Sorry this all looks Greek to me. I tried changing the command to VPLAYER, but apparently I'm doing something wrong.

Code: [Select]

(defun c:fo (/ l dxf code list)
(defun dxf (code list)
(cdr (assoc code list))
);defun
(setq l (tblnext "layer" T))
(command "VPLAYER")
(while l
(cond ((< (dxf 62 l) 0) (command "f" (dxf 2 l))))
(setq l (tblnext "layer"))
);while
(command "")
(setq l ())
(cond ((not (null gc)) (gc)))
)
Seems to be erroring out obtaining the layer names that are turned off:

Command: FO
VPLAYER Enter an option [?/Color/Ltype/LWeight/TRansparency/Freeze/Thaw/Reset/Newfrz/Vpvisdflt]: f
Enter layer name(s) to freeze or <specify layers by object selection>: S-ANNOT-P-TXT

Figured it out. I had to add "c" to select the "current" viewport under line 8

Code: [Select]

(defun c:fo (/ l dxf code list)
(defun dxf (code list)
(cdr (assoc code list))
);defun
(setq l (tblnext "layer" T))
(command "VPLAYER")
(while l
(cond ((< (dxf 62 l) 0) (command "f" (dxf 2 l) "c")))
(setq l (tblnext "layer"))
);while
(command "")
(setq l ())
(cond ((not (null gc)) (gc)))
)
