[#1]

Dear autocad / lisp users,

Could somebody please help me.

I want to create a dynamic block that automaticly updates the viewport cannoscale a.k.a. Plotscale.

At the moment I / We have a dynamic block that contains a field for the Plotscale.

The only problem is, we have to fill it in ourselfs. so this means human errors or even blank fields.

Not so good.

Is there somebody who might knows a little bit of code to put in a RTEXT - Diesel block? 

I will appreaciate anny help.

Thank you,

Michel

Why not use a FIELD, and use the Viewport object properties?

Thank you for your post.

I've tried the field command, but with no luck.

When I put in a FIELD, and choose plotscale, it does not

update when I change the VpScale. It just stays 1:1

or a big numer in modelspace.

I tried several times before but, no luck.

Nice to be able to pass on some of the help I have had over the years

Do you know if RText can placed on 2 lines.

the code that is being used is on 1 line the problem is when there are a number of xrefs the code runs off the page

XREFS:$(xrefs,6,,/)

Should I put this in a new post?

[#8]

Diesel is not something I know about only what I have learnt from here.

Try this

$(xrefs,14)

I have just tried this in a drawing that has 2 xrefs & it listed them one below the other which is I think what you are looking for.

If that does not work you would probably be better as you suggest starting a new post with a different heading
