OFFSET ALL
Tip #1914 [OFFSET-ALL.LSP]
Offset is one of the most frequently used commands in AutoCAD. However, elements in blocks, external references,
and blocked pline segments can t be offset with the standard Offset command. OFFSET-ALL.LSP offsets
lines, arcs, and circles, including those in blocks or external references. It places the objects on your current layer.

Rename File To : Tip1915: ZX.LSP
ZX.LSP creates a temporary group of objects for use later or with the Move and Copy commands.

GROUP  EM
Tip #1915 [ZX.LSP]
The Group command can be cumbersome and overkill. This AutoLISP macro establishes a group of objects
named Zx if, for example, you need to tie a group of objects together for repeated or later use with Move and Copy.
(defun c:zx (/x)
(setq x (ssget)
(princ)
)
Load ZX.LSP, select a set, type ZX at any Select Objects prompt. Use the set as is or add and remove objects. The grouping is destroyed when you close the drawing.

SWITCH TEXT
Tip #1916 [SWTXTVAL.LSP]
This program switches the string value of two selected text or mtext entities. If, when you select a text entity, you accidentally miss or select another entity type, such as line or circle, the program repeats the entity pick until you select text or mtext. The program is simple, but saves a lot of time. I use it dozens of times a day.

CHANGE SNAP ANGLE
Tip #1917 [SNAPANG.ZIP]When you work with files that contain many angles, you must constantly change the snap angle of your cursor. SnapAng Toolbar covers all angles in 15? increments and includes a variable that lets you pick two points to set your snap angle when you select it. This saves me a great deal of time. The ZIP file contains the menu text and the bit-map files for the icons. Unzip the file and add the files to your AutoCAD path. See SNAPANG.TXT for further instruction.

Use BKH.LSP to break lines, polylines, circles, and arcs at selected points and then automatically transfer the breakout to a layer with hidden-line linetype. Remember that AutoCAD handles break points in a clockwise manner for arcs and circles. The routine creates its own hidden layer
(figure 1).
