Replace Selected Points In A Drawing With A Defined Block

-
How to replace selected points in a drawing with a defined block in the drawing ?

 This routine could be more rubust but it is still helpful. It does let you specify the scale of the block and rotation.

Command : PT2BLOCK
Enter the name of the block that will replace the point objects with ,enter>
Specify the insertion Scale Factor
Specify the rotation angle
Select Point objects that will be replaced by the block.
Note: this is not a global point replacement program by default. If you would like to replace all point objects, enter ALL at the command line.

Strip Mtext

This program creates a user command that will quickly remove formatting applied to individual characters and words inside Mtext objects. StripMtext can remove the following types of formatting: Alignment  Color  Font Height  Underscore  Overscore  Linefeed (Paragraph Return)  Obliquing  Stacking  Tracking  Width  Non-breaking Space StripMtext does not modify Mtext properties such as style, justification, width, and rotation.  Nor does it manipulate inherited properties such as layer, entity color, etc. Note: Removing Mtext formatting is a very complex procedure.  This program has been designed to safely remove formatting but no guarantee exist.  Until you become familiar with StripMtext, please save your drawing before using.  If you do not like the results, you can immediatly issue an Undo command to restore your Mtext to its prior condition.  You are encouraged to spend a few minu...

Quickly Rotate The Drawing UCS, Without losing the original co-ordinates

1. Load the LISP using APPLOAD command (AP) 2. Draw or select a line along the longest side of the property, building, etc.  3. Type "ROD" command to activate the lisp. 4. Select the line or object. 5. Done "This can also be done in a viewport without affecting model space, but you will need to reset the VP scale." Notes : Rotating your UCS to an object is a very quick way to rotate your drawing's view so that it is aligned with a major object in your drawing. This works very well when you want to rotate the view in a viewport. It is instant and it rotates the view to the angle of the object you select. To put things back to normal, type PLAN on the Command line and choose WORLD, then type UCS and select WORLD.
