acad x again

I realized that my last post was a little obscure.

Let me try this again.

I read on some website that AcadX was being discontinued after 2004. I was
wondering if this is true.

If so, I was wondering if there was a way to recreate the
InputMan_InputPointEvent in AutoCAD 2005.

I have generated some sofisticated programs using that feature, related to
field observation using a tablet computer, and I would hate to see us not be
able to move the software forward.

Thanks for your attention,

Edward

 

Edward,
Contact Tony T. directly. I can't speak for him but
he might be willing to sell you a copy without
support. Either way none of us, other than Tony can
give you an answer.

If you don't want to buy a copy from him, you should
forget the reference to AcadX, start a new thread and discuss
what you want. Most of us don't know the specific
behavior of InputMan_InputPointEvent. Before you
do, note that most things in AcadX were workarounds
for things you couldn't do in LISP or VBA and therefore
required ARX. It is therefore unlikely that if Tony couldn't
do it in LISP, that we could.

Regards,
Doug

 

Edward - Do you have a significant investment in your software?

 

Actually in a way.

It has been presented as APTNE (Association For Preservation Technology
Northeast) we have used it on several projects and plan on using the
software on a very large project comming up soon.

It's a software that uses a tablet computer to quantify building
deteriorations in the field.

The InputMan_InputPointEvent is essential to the tool as it allows a user to
sketch locations and have them be quantified by the program. None of the
built in features work nearly as well.

Thanks for your response,
Edward
