Plot command

(command "-plot" "no" "" "" "DWF6 eplot.pc3" "" "" "" "")

Using this line of code works but halfway through a dialog box appears
asking to name and where to place the dwf file

Question 1) how would I write the code so that the dialog box does not
appear?

Question 2) how would I make it so when the dwf is named it only takes the
name on the tab?

thanks Russ

 

Turning off Filedia ? (set to 1, set it to 0)

(setvar "ctab" (nth 0 (layoutlist))) ; reads out the current layout tab

Hope it helps you.

Thanks that fixed it. The problem now is when I want to batch plot dwf a
dialog box appears asking to save it.
How would I suppress this dialog box and turn it into a command line driven
sequence?

Likewise when I use similar code to batch plot pdf's a dialog box appears -
how do I get rid of this also?

(I have acad 2005)

thanks if anyone can help


(setq layouts_to_plot (dos_multilist "Plot Layouts" "Select layouts"
(layoutlist)))
(setq NumTabs (length layouts_to_plot))
(foreach LLN layouts_to_plot
(layoutlist)
(setvar "CTAB" LLN)
(setvar "FILEDIA" 0)
(command "-plot" "NO" "" "" "DWF6 eplot.pc3" LLN "NO" "YES")
(setvar "FILEDIA" 1)
);foreach

 

The problem now is when I want to batch plot dwf a dialog box appears asking
to save it.

We have noticed that too, the only workaround sofar is to save all drawings,
than start the plotsequence.

We don't use that many pdf's, no experience with it.
