How to offset objects to a specific layer in AutoCAD?
If you are an AutoCAD user, you probably know how tedious and time-consuming it can be to offset objects to a different layer manually. You have to select each object, change its layer property, and then repeat the process for every object you want to offset. Wouldn’t it be nice if you could automate this task with a simple command?
That’s where AutoCAD LISP comes in handy. In this blog post, I will show you how to use a LISP program that can offset objects to a specific layer in AutoCAD with just one command.
After you have uploaded the LISP file, you need to type 'OL' to activate it.
Then specify the layer that the objects will offset to it.
Specify the offset distance.
Finally, select the objects to offset
That’s it. You have successfully offset the objects to a specific layer in one click using a LISP routine. You can use this LISP routine as many times as you want, on any drawing that you want. You can also customize the LISP routine to suit your needs, such as changing the erase or copy mode of the original object.
You can download the lisp from here.
