Archicad to Autocad Linetype Slider LISP

Sefa Yakut
Enthusiast

Hi,

 

I live in Turkiye, and in my country, the public sector requires files in DWG format to review the project. Additionally, other project authors also request the file in DWG format. Therefore, exporting DWG files from Archicad and ensuring they perfectly match my project is crucial.

 

I spent a lot of time working on the DWG converter settings in Archicad. I finally achieved the desired result, but I need to use a separate line type conversion table for each scale. While many issues can be resolved using an AutoCAD template file, I still encountered some problems.

 

I created a LISP that I can use in AutoCAD, especially for line type conversion. When you load this LISP, it works with the LTS (LineTypeScale) command and asks you to enter a numerical value. (The most efficient value is 5.) After entering this value, the lines appear the same as in Archicad without having to explode the blocks.

 

I'm not sure if it's appropriate to share it here, but if anyone is interested, please contact me.

I think it is OK to share is if it does not violate any copyright laws.

You can just ZIP it and attach it to a post so people can easily download it.
