height level block attribute

Hi everyone,

I am struggling to find a way to have an attribute block in wich i write a value (i.e. 1000mm) and by his side automatically it appears the corrispondent inches value. 

 

I enclose the block to help you understand what i need! 

 

thank you in advance

Sandrapane Hi,

 

Attached MM2IN.zip contains MM2IN.vlx is a little lisp program that will do what you want

extract the vlx file then load it in your dwg then invoke mm2in command

 

cheers

Sorry forgot to post your dwg file back which contains your modified block 

i added a second attribute call INCH (with out it the lisp won't work)

hi,

first thank you very much for your help, it works greatly on your block, but when i try it on mine it doesn't even get the selection, i don't understand why

 

Thanks again

What do you mean by 'Your Block'?  it is totaly your block by the name 'QUOTA'

 

the lisp is designed to work only with 'QUOTA' blocks and it should contains two attributes tag names '+QUOTA' and 'INCH'

any other block names or attributes tag is ignore
