which would allow me to select a group of closed polylines and return their combined areas?
POLYAREA.LSP from http://www.turvill.com/t2/free_stuff (Browsing this group before posting would have saved you having to post.) ___
(Browsing this group before posting would have saved you having to post.) Thank you for the routine. Now, where was that previously posted? I did not see it....
For future use on searching -- The discussion group search engine provides flexibility for searching through existing message content. To search: 1. Go to http://discussion.autodesk.com/ 2. Select a product - AutoCAD and then under it Customization. 3. Type your keywords into the search box and click Search. Using "area routine" without the "" brought up 118 message threads meeting those words. Note: You can further refine your query by selecting a specific discussion group from the dropdown provided. Your group choices will vary in the drop down, based on where you have navigated on the discussion group site. Search results are sorted by relevance (a complex query of all relevant content based on your keywords and group choices). Clicking on the message result will display the entire thread (the series of messages and replies).
I understand how to search, but thank you anyways. I did not find 118, so I do not have alot cached I guess. I just asked Paul because he evidently saw something which I did not. Thank you both...
Just a tip ... when doing a search for previously posted utilities, use the web side in Internet Explorer rather than Outlook Express, that way you search through everything on the AutoDesk server rather than your hard drive cache.
It wasn't anything I "saw" ... it's just that I've posted similar replies to that same request on average of more than once a week here for the past several years. ___
I still do not see any in my cache, but next time I will search via the internet as Chip suggested before I ask. But again, thank you... good day...
I prefer the Google Advanced Groups Search found here http://www.google.com/advanced_group_search?hl=en> Enter autodesk.autocad.customization in the 'Newsgroup' box and your search will be limited to this forum. The search options are very powerful.
