View in object space viewport

Sep 18, 2006 2 Replies

I've a french autocad.



I want to make and name a view in the object space viewport directly. A lisp (edview.lsp)



(defun c:ev () (setq pt1 (getpoint "\n1corner of the view")) (setq pt2 (getpoint "\n2corner of the view"))")) (setq txt (getstring "\nname of the view :")) (command "view" "w" txt pt1 pt2) (princ) )



I make all it's ask, including name of the view. Then a prompt appear, who's says "name of the view" unknow command.



Any Idea ?



Since you're using Franch Autocad the problem may be with the 'language' of the command name. So try changing the line to;

(command "._view" "_w" txt pt1 pt2)

Your syntax is messed up:

(defun c:ev () (setq pt1 (getpoint "\n1corner of the view")) (setq pt2 (getpoint "\n2corner of the view")) (setq txt (getstring "\nname of the view :")) (command "view" "w" txt pt1 pt2) (princ) )

The quotes and two paraentheses after the corner view setq are extra. Try the above.
