If nothing happens, download GitHub Desktop and try again. ScriptPro 2.0 is a batch processing utility that allows you to apply a set of commands to multiple drawings. Simply specify a script file that contains the commands you want to run on a single drawing, and then use ScriptPro 2.0 to apply.
Description
ScriptPro 2.0 is a batch processing utility that allows you to applya set of commands to multiple drawings. Simply specify a script filethat contains the commands you want to run on a single drawing, andthen use ScriptPro 2.0 to apply that script to as many drawings asyou like. ScriptPro 2.0 will handle opening and closing each drawingfor you. ScriptPro 2.0 takes AutoCAD scripting to a new level withan easy-to-use interface, logging, reusable project files and robusterror recovery so your processing continues even when AutoCAD can't.
This version of ScriptPro is a ground-up rewrite of this highlypopular utility for AutoCAD. It has been redeveloped with the keyfeature of being usable on 64-bit systems, and is now being providedwith full source code for others to use and extend.
System Requirements
This application has been tested with AutoCAD 2008 onwards. It willuse the version of AutoCAD most recently used on the system. Toselect a particular version of AutoCAD for use with the tool, simplystart and close that version prior to using it.
A pre-built version of the application has been provided which shouldwork on 32- and 64-bit Windows systems. The application requires the.NET Framework 3.5 or above.
The application has not been tested with all AutoCAD-based products,but should work (see 'Feedback', below, otherwise).
The source code has been provided as a Visual Studio 2008 projectcontaining C# code (not required to run the tool).
This application makes use of 'Microsoft Ribbon for WPF October 2010'.This only needs to be installed if you wish to work with the sourceproject:http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=2bfc3187-74aa-4154-a670-76ef8bc2a0b4
Installation
Copy the contents of the 'bin' folder (the main application file,'ScriptPro.exe' and its supporting DLLs, 'DrawingListUC.dll','Microsoft.Windows.Shell.dll' and 'RibbonControlsLibrary.dll')to the same location on your local system. Optionally copy thisReadMe to the same folder or the folder above.
Usage
ScriptPro 2.0 is a batch-processing tool that will run an AutoCADscript on each drawing in a list of drawing files. Before you beginusing ScriptPro 2.0, you should have a specific task in mind.
It can be as simple or as complex as you like. Once you have decidedon your task and have written a script to handle it, you decide whichdrawings you would like to run the script with.
In the ScriptPro 2.0 Project Editor, you can specify the script fileto use and select the drawings to apply the script to. Thisinformation can be saved as a ScriptPro 2.0 project file.
While running a project, ScriptPro 2.0 opens each drawing in sequenceand runs the associated script file.
The following topics outline each of the steps for creating andrunning a ScriptPro 2.0 project.
Starting ScriptPro
ScriptPro 2.0 is a stand-alone application that runs independently ofAutoCAD. To simplify running the tool, you can create a shortcut toScriptPro.exe on your desktop. Otherwise simply run the executabledirectly from Windows Explorer or a command-prompt window.
ScriptPro 2.0 has a ribbon UI. The ribbon has a number of differentgroups. They are 'List', 'Drawing Files', 'Run', 'Stop', 'Options'and 'Help'.
List:
'New' - Creates a new ScriptPro 2.0 project.'Load' - Loads an existing ScriptPro 2.0 project.'Save' - Saves the current ScriptPro 2.0 project.'Save As' - Saves the current project to another location.'Load SCP Project'- Reads the specified ScriptPro (SCP) project file.
Drawing Files:
'Add' - Adds drawing files (DWG & DXF) to the current project.'Add From Folder'- Adds drawing files (DWG & DXF) from a selected folder.to the current project'Remove' - Removes the selected files from the current project.'Check/Uncheck'- Allows drawing files to be skipped during processing.
Run:
'Checked' - Runs the selected script on all the checked drawingfiles in the current project.'Selected' - Runs the selected script on all the selected drawingfiles in the current project.'Failed' - Re-runs the selected script on all the drawing fileswhich previously failed to execute.
Stop:
'Stop' - Stops the processing of drawings.
Options:
'Settings' - Shows the 'Options' dialog box which allows you tospecify various options such as the time-out period,log file path and initial script.
Help:
'Help' - Shows this ReadMe.txt file, if either placed in thesame folder as ScriptPro.exe or the parent folder.
The 'Options' dialog box contains a number of project-relatedsettings:
'Process timeout per drawing in seconds'
A timeout period indicating how long AutoCAD is inactive beforeScriptPro 2.0 aborts processing on the current drawing and moveson to the next drawing in the list. The time-out period is specifiedin seconds. If you are processing very large drawings, you may needto increase the time-out period to allow AutoCAD enough time to openthese drawings.
'Restart AutoCAD after _ drawings' Arcam alpha 6 amplifier user manual.
This indicates the number of drawings to process prior to restartingAutoCAD. Processing multiple drawings in the same AutoCAD sessionreduces the time needed to process them - as the application does notneed to be restarted - but typically leads to a gradual increase inmemory consumption. This option tells ScriptPro 2.0 to restartAutoCAD after processing a certain number of drawings, resetting thememory needed by the AutoCAD process.
'AutoCAD startup script file'
A script to be executed once when starting a new AutoCAD session.This can be used to load required LISP, ObjectARX, .NET or VBAapplications, for instance.
'Process log folder'
The location in which logs will be created. Each log will be namedusing the format 'SPlog_date_hour_min_seconds.log' (e.g.SPlog_20_14_23_49.log) while running unsaved drawing list. In case of runningdrawing list, the name of log file will include the drawing list namewith date time. A detailed log containing the text fromAutoCAD's command-line will also be created using the format'SPlog_Detail_log_date_hour_min_seconds.log' (for unsaved drawing list)and 'Drawinglistname_Detail_log_date_hour_min_seconds.log' .
'Create image before closing the drawing file'
Causes a screenshot to be captured of the AutoCAD application window,whether for all processed drawings or only the ones that have failed.
'Select DWG/DXF files in sub directories'
Causes the 'Add From Folder' command to search sub-folders whenpopulating the list of drawings to process.
'Run the tool in diagnostic mode'
Causes processing to stop just before closing each drawing for theuser to verify the state of the drawing file. There is no timeoutduring this mode of running.
'Delay during process (Seconds)'
![]()
Delay setting which enables the user to slow down the tool, which in turnsgives enough time to AutoCAD to respond to the tools commands
'AutoCAD exe path to use'
This option allows the selection of particular AutoCAD version to beused with the tool. If no path is given, tool will use most recentlyused AutoCAD version on the system.
'Run script without opening drawing file'Causes the script to run on empty/dummy document. Use this option when script filehas commands to open and close the drawing. This option is helpful for commands like'Recover' which requires the script open the file. The Drawing list selected in the UIis used to resolve the keywords in run time. This below example shows the script forperforming batch recover.
Example 1:QAFLAGS 31_RECOVER'acet:cfullfileName'_SAVEAS2007(LT2007)'acet:cFolderName<acet:cBaseName>_RECOVED.dwg'close
Command Line Access
To run a series of ScriptPro 2.0 projects from a DOS batch file,you can use the ScriptPro command line interface:
ScriptPro 'run'
For example:
C:ScriptPro 2.0ScriptPro.exe 'c:TestProject.bpl' 'run'
You can also use 'exit' at the end to make silent exit of ScriptPro afterprocessing the drawing list.
For example:
C:ScriptPro 2.0ScriptPro.exe 'c:TestProject.bpl' 'run' 'exit'
ScriptPro Keywords
Keywords can be used to specify the current file name and its directory.When ScriptPro runs, it will replace each keyword with the correct valuebefore processing the script. This is done for each drawing file afterit has been opened so that the keywords are always replaced with the correctvalues from the current drawing.
acet:cFolderName Specifies the drawing file folder name (directory name).acet:cBaseName Specifies the base file name without a directory or extension.acet:cExtension Specifies the extension for the drawing file (.dwg, .dwt, or .dxf)acet:cFileName Specifies the base name with the extension.This will have the same value as the DWGNAME system variable.acet:cFullFileName Specifies the full file name with path and extension.

AutoCAD terminates the current script when a SCRIPT command is invoked.If you wish to call another script from the current one and continue processing from thecurrent script once the called script process has completed, you can use the ScriptPro CALL command.The CALL command prompts for the script file to be called.
For example:zoom ecall save.scr
ScriptPro preprocesses scripts before running them. During this process,it finds all instances of CALL and replaces them with the actual scriptcode from the called script. The resulting script file contains all thecode from the original script and all the code from the called scripts.This file is placed in the temporary directory and is used when running the project.
Creating Scripts for ScriptPro
A script is a series of AutoCAD commands in a text file that can beused to carry out a task. With scripts, you can run several commandsin succession. You create script files outside AutoCAD, using a texteditor (such as Microsoft Windows Notepad) or a word processor (suchas Microsoft Word) that saves the file in ASCII format. The fileextension must be .scr. All references to long file names thatcontain embedded spaces must be enclosed in double quotes. Forexample, to insert the drawing c:My Project Filessink.dwg from ascript, you must use the following syntax:
-insert 'c:My Project Filessink.dwg'
Dxo optics pro 9 user manual. Script files can contain comments. Any line that begins with asemicolon (;) is considered a comment, and AutoCAD ignores the linewhile processing the script file. For information about creatingscripts, see the Customization Guide.
When putting together a script for use with ScriptPro 2.0, you needto consider the actions you want performed on the drawing. ScriptPro2.0 will handle opening the drawing file and exiting the file onceprocessing is complete. ScriptPro 2.0 will not save the drawingautomatically. If you want the drawing saved, you must put thatinto your script.
ScriptPro 2.0 preprocesses scripts before running them. During thisprocess, it finds all instances of CALL and replaces them with theactual script code from the called script. The resulting script filecontains all the code from the original script and all the code fromthe called scripts. This file is placed in the temporary directoryand is used when running the project.
ScriptPro 2.0 comes with some sample files to help you get started.The files are contained in the 'Samples' sub-folder.
Uninstallation
Delete the 'ScriptPro.exe' and its supporting dlls,'DrawingListUC.dll', 'Microsoft.Windows.Shell.dll' and'RibbonControlsLibrary.dll' from the location to which the fileswere originally copied.
