Project1/2 Lsp

[mm1926]

Hello All,

Does anyone remember or use a lisp prorgram call 'project' It allowed you to accomplish the following tasks:

1) PROJECT1
Allows a "flat" projection of wireframe 3D models (lines, arcs,
circles, polylines, solids, points) onto the current UCS. This
could be a useful aid for generating working drawings from a 3D
model.

After projection, the user is allowed to make the projected
entities into a block, or write it out as a drawing file.
These blocks or drawing files (typically Top, Front, Side, and
Iso projections) could be re-inserted onto a single UCS and
annotated to create a multi-view orthographic drawing.

2) PROJECT2
This routine projects an entity perpendicular from the current
UCS onto a designated construction plane. This may be useful
in the construction of 3D wireframe models.

This was very useful in previous releases of AutoCAD, but does not appear to work very well in AutoCAD 2000i

Any comments would be helpful
Thanks,

Dave

Have you tried the "solprof" commmand?
This does a trace over of your 3D view. You only need to shut off your 3D model and move over the 2D trace over. Or you can make a "block".

I know it's a couple steps extra but it's better than nothing. :(

That seems to work well enough for now.
