set color and fill mode via vectorscript


Recommended Posts

hi,

i am looking for a way to set color and fill mode of an object via vectorscript.

i want e.g. se?ect a rectangle, press a shortcut and get a filled rectangle in cloro grey.

i tried with that script which i recorded with the "multitool" (multiwerkzeug in german translation) but it doesn't work:

Procedure CustTool;

VAR

Name:STRING;

Result:BOOLEAN;

BEGIN

PushAttrs;

PenFore(257);

PenBack(256);

PenPat(2);

FillFore(257);

FillBack(1236);

FillPat(1);

PenSize(2);

PenPat(2);

Result:= SetDefaultBeginningMarker(0, 15, 0.125000, 0.000000, 0, 0.000000, FALSE);

Result:= SetDefaultEndMarker(0, 15, 0.125000, 0.000000, 0, 0.000000, FALSE);

CallTool(-203);

PopAttrs;

END;

Run(CustTool);

any help greatly appreciated

What you have there is a script that calls the rectangle tool, allowing you to draw one with a set fill color already applied.

For what you want to do you need something more like:

Procedure Filler;

FUNCTION fillObj(h:HANDLE) :BOOLEAN;

Begin

????SetFPat(h,1);

????SetFillBack(h,50000,50000,50000);

End;

BEGIN

????ForEachObjectInLayer(FillObj,2,0,4);

END;

RUN(Filler);

This will fill selected objects on editable layers with a med/light grey. You'll find that this grey is not on the color palette cause I just put in randomly selected RGB values.

Should get you started.
