A big thanks to Holger Seidel from CADsys for proposing this topic and providing the bulk of the code. My main contribution - aside from some minor edits - was to implement the logic in the "BJIG" command to allow selection of the block and then loop to multiply insert it. The jig definition is […]

This post extends the polyline-creation jig shown in the previous entry to support the use of keywords both for arc segments and for undo. A few notes: I removed the use of a separate vertex list, as it proved to be less necessary than needed This implementation supports Undo, and the toggling between Line segment […]

During the first two parts of this series we looked at different techniques for creating polylines programmatically in AutoCAD (while allowing the user to select the various vertices). In this post look at the most advanced technique yet, the use of a "Jig". A Jig is a special construct in AutoCAD that hosts an object […]
