Creating Commands from Downloadable Applications and Command Scripts

Commands of the third-party applications, scripts, scenarios, etc. discussed above can be integrated into nanoCAD as independent commands. They can be placed in the ribbon, on toolbars, in the menu.

To do this:

1.    Add the desired script/application in the autoload list using the Application Load (APPLOAD) or Load NET Application commands.
For example, add LispExample.lsp with the following LISP command:

//LispExample.lsp

(defun c:SetColor()

    (command "_-Color" "230")

)

2.    Create a new custom nanoCAD command in the Customize user interface dialog box based on SetColor command from the loaded script/application. In the same place, specify the icon file for it.

3.    If necessary, create a new toolbar in the Customize user interface dialog.

4.    In the same dialog, drag a newly created nanoCAD command to the required toolbar, menu or ribbon tab.

5.    Reload nanoCAD.
