Ok, so I'm now running 12.1 PE+

Part of a lisp file I am working on is intended to rotate a rectangle by 90deg about the 'Y' axis.
Sound simple enough.
Here is the code, ENT_L1 is the object & 'rxl' is 225, with 'ag_l' being 90deg .

The result was not as I expected!
OK, so I'll draw a line to represent the rotation axis: and this is the result: Now I haven't use the '@' symbol so ALL dimensions/coordinates are 'absolute' not 'relative'.
So why does the line state at @0,0,0?

Command line:

Command: _Line
ENTER to use last point/[Follow]/<Start of line>: 225,0,0
[Angle/Length]/<End point>: 225,500,0
[Angle/Length/Follow/Undo]/<End point>:
rxl = 225
Command: '_PMTHIST

Just for completness here is an image from Icad 12.0 running the same lisp: The rotation is as expected, thw white line is as expected & the arc (Pline) is again as expected.

Hi Steven,
Try to "Turn the osnaps off" at begin the lisp and restore when finished.

Hi Quan,

Thanks, that works
But why???

The bottom line is that for release 12.1 the behavior for the OSNAPCOORD system variable was redesigned in accordance with AutoCAD.

You can not disable snaps using the OSMODE system variable, but set the desired value of the OSNAPCOORD system variable.
