Create new command with Autolisp

      

 Create Your Own CAD Commands with AutoLISP in PTCAD

One of the most powerful features of professional CAD platforms is the ability to automate repetitive tasks. If you’ve ever used AutoLISP in AutoCAD, you’ll be happy to know that PTCAD fully supports AutoLISP programming — allowing you to take full control of your workflow.

✅ What is AutoLISP?

AutoLISP is a programming language built specifically for CAD automation. With it, users can:

  • Create custom commands

  • Automate drawing routines

  • Modify geometry with a few lines of code

  • Speed up repetitive tasks

AutoLISP has long been a favorite tool among advanced CAD users — and now, it’s fully supported in PTCAD.


💡 Why Use AutoLISP in PTCAD?

PTCAD is not just a DWG-compatible CAD solution. It’s built for power users too. Here’s what makes it great for scripting:

🧠 1. Full Compatibility

PTCAD supports standard AutoLISP syntax, so you can copy existing .lsp files directly from your AutoCAD environment and run them in PTCAD — no modification required in most cases.

🛠 2. Custom Command Creation

Want to create your own command like DOORMARK, STEELBAR, or MYOFFSET? Just write a few lines of LISP code and load it into PTCAD. Your custom tool will be ready instantly.

Example:

lisp
(defun c:hello () (alert "Hello from PTCAD!") )

Type HELLO in the command line, and watch it work.

🚀 3. Boost Productivity

Automate everything from layer setup to dimensioning. If you do the same thing over and over in drawings — you can script it.


🔧 How to Use AutoLISP in PTCAD

  1. Open PTCAD

  2. Go to ToolsLoad Application

  3. Select your .lsp file

  4. Type your custom command in the command line

  5. Done!


🧑‍💻 Who is it for?

  • Engineers who want to speed up detailing

  • Drafters with repetitive design patterns

  • CAD managers building internal toolkits

  • Power users switching from AutoCAD


🌟 Real-World Use Cases

  • Batch rename layers

  • Auto-insert title blocks with project info

  • Draw custom rebar layouts or beams

  • Setup standard dimensions in one click


✅ Why PTCAD?

PTCAD is a modern CAD software designed with compatibility and efficiency in mind — and at a fraction of the cost of legacy solutions. With AutoLISP support, you don’t lose the flexibility you’ve built up over years — you enhance it.
