cacamote Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 Hi, I'm woundering if there is something like this tool for VW11. I need to list lots of coordinates from a very big drawing and found this tool on VectorDepot: "Coordinate Markers:This tool will place a symbol at a selected point. The symbol will include the X & Y coordinates of the point it is placed at. These coordinates will be based on a user selected origin." Unfortunatly it only works with VW9. Does anybody knows wich tool can I use on VW11 an get similar results? Thanks Quote Link to comment
islandmon Posted June 15, 2005 Share Posted June 15, 2005 The 'Stake Object' is supposed to but doesn't really... The 'Coordinate Markers' PIO is NOT ... it's a '.mcd' for 'Toggle' Preferences. Someboy screwed up Looks like we need a new BenchMark Tool ... Quote Link to comment
islandmon Posted June 15, 2005 Share Posted June 15, 2005 {Cacamote: Give this script a try} PROCEDURE BenchmarkXY; VAR h : HANDLE; X,Y : REAL; pX,pY : REAL; BEGIN CallTool(-221); h := FSActLayer; GetLocPt(h,pX,pY); TextOrigin(pX+.01, pY+.01); CreateText(Concat(' / E: ', pX, ' / N: ', pY)); END; RUN(BenchMarkXY); Quote Link to comment
cacamote Posted June 15, 2005 Author Share Posted June 15, 2005 Works like a charm.... Thanks a lot. Carlos Quote Link to comment
islandmon Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 {/Here's an even better one that compensates for Origin Offsets , but requires a symbol named 'Benchmark' which should be created at Plan Origin = '0,0,0'/ } PROCEDURE BenchmarkTXT; VAR h : HANDLE; X, Y : REAL; n, i : INTEGER; objectHand, recordHand, wallHand : HANDLE; objectName : STRING; BEGIN h := FSActLayer; REPEAT UNTIL MouseDown(X,Y); IF GetCustomObjectInfo(objectName, objectHand, recordHand, wallHand) THEN BEGIN {Get Object info} SetObjectVariableBoolean (objectHand,800,TRUE); {Let the text style be changed by the user from outside} GetSymLoc(objectHand, X, Y); {Get Object Position} END; TextOrigin(X, Y); {Set text position, note the object internal coordinate system)} FillPat(1); {Set Fill} Createtext(Concat(' # ['' E:', Num2StrF(X), '?''N:', Num2StrF(Y),']')); Symbol('Benchmark',X,Y,0); DSelectAll; END; RUN(BenchMarkTXT); Quote Link to comment
holsteinson Posted June 25, 2005 Share Posted June 25, 2005 Hi EJ I saw you reply to cacamote and I have been trying to cope with the lack of support by VW11.5x of WGS84 & UTM geodetic coordinate systems Is there any way to program or buy module or add on to be able to use these coordinate systems in VW? By law all projects have to be georeferenced here in the Dominican Republic so I am having to use AUTOCAD LANDESKTOP for the plan/layout drawings and my beloved VW for the rest PLEASE HELP Quote Link to comment
holsteinson Posted June 27, 2005 Share Posted June 27, 2005 Hola Carlos the problem with VW is the lack of geodetic coordinate systems support "curved' earth georeferenced WGS-84 and UTM this can not be solved with the scropts Quote Link to comment
cacamote Posted June 27, 2005 Author Share Posted June 27, 2005 Have you tried this? http://www.azimuthmapper.com/ I'm not sure if this is whta you need. Check it out! Quote Link to comment
cacamote Posted June 27, 2005 Author Share Posted June 27, 2005 Hi, Holsteinson. I was having the same problem here in Bogot?. I have tried both scprits and the work great. If you have any trouble let me known and I'll guide you though. Carlos Quote Link to comment
islandmon Posted June 27, 2005 Share Posted June 27, 2005 Azimuth was developed on Minicad+SDK as you can see from the tools. It is an excellent program ! I haven't used it in years but now that I've got the link I'll get it again. Thx Quote Link to comment
