Topic: More beta testing

[Mark]

Since you all are such good beta testers have you got the time for one more? This program is harmless, however same rules apply when testing new apps, open in a non-productive dwg. Same as the last one, just drag-n-drop into ACAD or however you load them, it will start itself. This program D/L's a file from TheSwamp and gives you an alert box. Nothing special, you'll see.

Can I ask you this...I loaded the program into a junk production file and got the above. However, when I loaded it into a completely new session, nothing came up...WHY??? I only had one session of CAD open.

I did all the same and got all the same. I think the answer lies somewhere in here.

I bet he's getting paid to put Spyware on our computers.

Craig - That's one of the benifits of being a governmental employee. Well it doesn't match any hex/dec/bin/or oct entries in any of my registry...maybe there is some larger force at work here?

What do you mean "a non-productive file"?  ALL my files are non-productive!

Same as all above......

[rugaroo]

If Mark can do it....why can't I???

Please make sure you save your work first. Always best to be safe rather than sorry.

(RUG-TEST)

Thats the command too....

Better do a little more debugging there Rug.

Ahhhhh man...got my hopes up and all I do is fail...back to the design stage for me


All well...I will be the nice guy here, and let you all try and find ways to tweak this one...

Code: [Select]

(DEFUN RUG-TEST (/ cmd)
  (SETQ cmd (GETVAR "cmdecho"))
  (ALERT "\nAttempting to do your work for you...")
  (ALERT "\nPlease click OK to continue.")
  (SETVAR "cmdecho" 0)
  (command "-layer" "s" "0" "")
  (princ "\n")
  (princ)
  (COMMAND "-layer" "off" "*" "y" "")
  (ALERT "\nAutocad failed to do your work for you.")
  (ALERT "\nNow get back to work you lazy person!")
  (ALERT
    "\nAutocad failed to save any of you work. Now exiting."
  )
  (SETVAR "cmdecho" cmd)
  (COMMAND "quit" "y")
  (PRINC)
)

Pretty lame, but you'd be suprised how well it works on newbies.
