Annotation on layers

[ahr]

Hi,

I have to annotate a lot of pipes and valves with the correct line numbers.

Each line/valve got its own layer name equal to the line number.

Have anyone seen an annotation tool that can help you to annotate such lines by clicking on the line and then get the layer name automatic in the end of a leader,??'

Brs,

Anders

I don't know of one that is already written.

If you wanted it to update if the layer of the line updates, you could use a field.

You can programatically create a field using lisp, the code would be (replace the ObjectID of course)

%<\AcObjProp Object(%<\_ObjId 8795994882096>%).Layer \f "%tc1">%

If you're not going to write this yourself, you might ask over in the customization group.
