To test the reactor code
- Load all the source
code from your project. (Choose the Load Source Files button in
the gpath project window.)
- Start the C:GPath function.
The program will draw a garden
path for you, just as you were able to in Lesson 5. You won't see
anything interesting at first.
- Try the following actions
after you draw the path:
- Move a polyline vertex.
Pick the polyline and turn on its grips, then drag a vertex to a
new location.
- Stretch the polyline.
- Move the polyline.
- Erase the polyline.
Examine the messages that
appear. You are watching the behind-the-scenes activities of a powerful
capability.
(If
your application is not working correctly and you do not want to
take the time to debug it right now, you can run the sample code
provided in the Tutorial\VisualLISP\Lesson6 directory.
Use the Gpath6 project
in that directory.)
NoteBecause
of the reactor behavior, you may notice that after testing a reactor
sequence in AutoCAD, you cannot return to VLISP by pressing ALT
+ TAB, or by clicking to activate the VLISP window. If this happens,
simply enter vlisp at
the AutoCAD Command prompt to return to VLISP.
