DWGADD(5) User Commands DWGADD(5)

dwgadd.5 - Format of the LibreDWG dwgadd example input-file

The dwgadd program accepts this input format to add entities and objects to a DWG file.

commands start at each new line and must begin with a keyword and has optional agruments.

comments start with # and are ignored.

entities are created with the arguments as in the VBA object model AddEntity or AddObject methods.

entities are added to the model space by default, objects to the DWG or to parents objects, as e.g. with "xrecord dictionary".

readdwg "file.dwg"
This must be the very first command. Otherwise a new, empty DWG Document is created.
readdxf "file.dxf"
This must be the very first command. Otherwise a new, empty DWG Document is created.
readjson "file.json"
This must be the very first command. Otherwise a new, empty DWG Document is created.
imperial
By default a new DWG is created as metric. There must be maximal one imperial line.
version number
Writes the output file in this version. It accepts numbers only "[0-9.]+", prefixes it with an "r", and converts this string via "dwg_version_as("r"version)" to a "Dwg_Version_Type". It accepts only valid DWG versions. There must be maximal one version line.
pspace
Add further entities to the paper space.
mspace
Add further entities to the model space again. This is only needed when a previous "pspace" command was used. mspace is the default.
HEADER.field = value
Assign "VALUES" to a HEADER field. See the full documentation of valid HEADER fields.
point (3dpoint)
line (3dpoint) (3dpoint)
Create a line variable and entity. You may set all other fields via the "line.field = value" syntax. E.g. "line.layer = "0""
ray (3dpoint) (3dpoint)
xline (3dpoint) (3dpoint)
xline (3dpoint) (3dpoint)
text "text_value" (ins_pt) height
mtext (ins_pt) height "text_value"
leader num_points ((points)...) mtext type
mtext must be the immediate previous command.
attribute 8 0 "prompt" (0.0 1.0 0.0) "tag" "text"
attdef 8 0 "prompt" (0.0 1.0 0.0) "tag" "default_text"
block "name"
Starts a new block.
endblk
Ends the current block.

entity.field = value
Every field of the just created entity or object can be set. See "VALUES" and the full documentation of the available entity fields.

Acceptable values must be formatted as:
integer
negative integers are allowed. "0xXXX" hex numbers are not accepted.
float
floats may omit the dot.
angle as float in degrees, not radians.
string in double-quotes
E.g "string" or "" for the empty string.
point as (float, float, [float])
esp. (float float) for 2dpoint

(float float float) for 3dpoint. (0 0 0) is a valid 3dpoint.

handle as "D.D.XXX"
<C[0-12]> as type "." decimal digits as size "." hexadecimal absolute ref. For relative handle codes, like 6,8,10,12 do not take the 3rd handle part asis, but use the absolute ref.

E.g. 5.1.15 for HEADER.LTYPE_BYLAYER.
