Model Space to Paper Space Converter
|
This program is for all who hate Paper Space but are required to deliver drawings in that state. It takes a 2D drawing with multiple scales done in Model Space and converts it to Paper Space. All border data are moved to Paper Space. All other drawing data (plans, details, sections, notes, dimensions, etc.) are displayed in Paper Space using AutoCAD Viewports. If you can plot the drawing in Model Space exactly how it would look if plotted in Paper Space, you should be able to use this, provided your client does not require placing annotation and dimensions in Paper Space. There are several approaches to using Paper Space, so it depends on the method required. That said, it would be possible to provide an option that separates the objects in this manner.

Paper Space to Model Space Converter
|
Another program for those who hate Paper Space. It converts Paper Space drawings to Model Space. That's exactly opposite of Model Space to Paper Space (and it has the same requirements and limitations).
|
Pipe Mold Lofting
|
This program unfolds Pipe (walled cylinders), made from AutoCAD 3dSolid objects, and produce dimensional and paper template data for cutting the pipe to its exact length with the exact cope (properly aligned) on each end. After constructing a precise 3D pipe model (including end copes and piece marks), this program produces Mold Loft data by simply selecting the pipes to be processed. If you can precisely construct the 3D model, you can Mold Loft pipe. The thickness of the Paper Template is taken into consideration.
Other CadToolChest programs can be used to create the pipes, cope them to their chord members, and assign piece marks as AutoCAD Xdata.
|
3dP Enhancement
|
Enhance the existing CadToolChest 3dP (3d Pipe) program to add the Xdata Piece Marks required by the Pipe Mold Lofting program currently under consideration in this table.
|
Sheave
|
An AutoLisp dialog box driven command, named SHEAVE, that constructs 2D and 3D McKissick API sheaves (catalog year 2005), in the following types:
Finished Bore
Common Bore
Bronze Bore
Roller Bearing
Tapered Bearing
|
SLIB (Slice through Bisector)
|
A program that slices one or more AutoCAD 3dSolid objects along the plane formed by the bisector of two 3D lines.
|
SUBT (Subtract 3dSolids)
|
A program that subtracts one or more 3dSolid objects from one or more other 3dSolid objects without loosing the objects being subtracted.
|
T%XDATA
|
An AutoLisp utility program that permits other AutoLisp programs to easily create, extract, and edit AutoCAD Xdata. This program is required by several other programs under consideration in this table.
|
SteeLiT
|
An AutoLisp Dialog Box driven program that creates 2D and 3D objects of all steel shapes in the AISC manual, as well as several other steel shapes such as Pipe, Plate Girders, Cones, and some Metric Shapes. Radio buttons control which AISC edition is used. Three 2D views are supported (Top, Side, and Section, with Crosshatch ability for Sections).
|
Weld Symbol
|
Creates AWS Weld Symbol. Place the reference line and add leaders by picking their locations in the drawing. All other symbols are placed on the reference line automatically just by clicking them in the menu. The symbol sizes and shapes are per AWS standards, and are scaled to the current drawing scale based upon DIMSCALE.
|
Yes/No/Cancel dialog
|
A dialog box with YES, NO and CANCEL buttons and 5 optional prompts. Your AutoLisp programs can call it with arguments that specify the desired prompts and which buttons to enable. An integer, depending on which button is clicked, is returned to the calling program so it can decide how to proceed.
