Menu Limitations

Automating the product I build is requiring me to make upwards of 30,000
blocks. Manualy inserting these parts is based on nested design criteria.

My problem seems to be AutoCAD menus has a limitation I have ran into.

If anyone can direct me to a tuturial, sample Visual Basic 6 Menu for
inserting blocks I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks,
Brian

 

Hi Brian,

All a menu is, is a way of telling AutoCAD to do something as if you typed
it at the command prompt.

The only limitations of which I'm aware, is that when you start AutoCAD it
will only display 24 pop menus and you have to use "Menuload" to see any
others. If you have others, tell us what they are, so that we don't need to
speculate.

However a menu structure to handle huge numbers of items could get quite
unwieldy and it would seem you should write a flow chart of what you
actually want to do and look at other means of AutoCAD do this work.
