AutoCAD 2013/2014 DWG Format

[#1]

I have a drawing and I have a field calling up the path and file name.  Is their a way to limit the size of the path displayed?  For example, if my drawing is C:\users\name1\name2\name3\t4\new5.dwg, is their a way to only show ...\name3\t4\new5.dwg?

Using DIESEL expression in you field will help point you in the right direction if you path names are all a consistent length

for example,

$(substr,%<\AcVar dwgprefix \f "%tc1">%,15)

will display the path from the 15th character

Also take a look at this link, one of the posts shows how to display a set number of characters from the end

Close.  But I can't to constant characters because the directory names will always be a diferent length.  I can say i just want everything from the third or fouth "\" forward.  Would that help?

I don't think it will be possible with diesel

I haven't much time at the moment to get too deep but there may be a solution here at this link
