Round Wall Script????

[myf]

Hello,

I'm a newbie to Vectorscript and I have a few "first user"-questions. Perhaps You can help me understand.

I have a layout with lots of round walls all with center 0,0

in different wall styles.

So, how the script looks like for creating the wall with predefined center?

And is it possible to make scripts with shortcut for the different wall styles - and the center 0,0

(for example shortcut ALT+10 for the wall with wall style "GK 10cm")

Thank you

myf

Are you working in version 12? (All of this changed from 11 to 12.)

Hi Charles,

yes, I'm working in 12.5

Since you can change wall styles with a pop-up menu in the mode bar now, scripts for changing wall styles aren't worth much anymore. Anyway, this is all you have to do:

IF SetWallPrefStyle('150mm Generic Wall') THEN Message('Wall style set to 150mm Generic Wall.');

Just replace '150mm Generic Wall' with your favorite wall style.

The call for creating round walls is:

RoundWall(centerPtX, centerPtY, startPtX, startPtY, endPtX, endPtY);

Sounds like you want to replace centerPtX and centerPtY with 0. Don't know what you want for the start and end points.

Hey Charles,

first thanks,

I'd like to have the center x and y as 0 and to pick the start- and endpoints like in the normal round wall function.

It's cause I have a quite big drawing and a hundreds of wals with center 0,0

At the moment I have not much time to test it (other projects with rectangular layouts - fortunately.

I will tell you when i did it.

Bye
