Unable to run TXTEXP within lisp (Runs fine outside of lisp)
Posted: Sun May 03, 2009 3:20 pm
In the express menu, Intellicad has a text exploding function which is called by the command: TXTEXP.
If I try to call this command from within lisp, it doesn't work (My text dissapears)
The command works fine if I run it from the screen.
At first I thought that the command called a lisp that I could add into my current lisp but when I did a search, I couldn't find it.
I have a Lisp that processes dozens of parts for CNC. I recently added a lisp driven automatic text labeling feature but my CNC program will only read polylines and will not read text.
When I explode the text at the screen using TXTEXP, everything works great and the exploded text imports beautifully into the CNC program.
I'm really stymied by this; it's impractical to manually run TXTEXP for every part.
Does anyone have any advice for me?
Thank you
