Converting Drafting View to Legend

Hi,

 

Do you know any add-in that will convert Drafting View to Legend?

 

Thanks,

Albert

Hello Albert, I think you have two ways to do this.

 

- Export a dwg of the drafting view and import it in a legend

- Copy the lines in the drafting view and paste them in the legend (you may draw directly in the legend)

 

I hope is useful.

Hi,

 

Thank you for the response, I appriciate that

What I am thinking a way to not to go to that way, an add-in that will make a drafting view into legend in one command because if I will gonna do what you suggested, I will gonna have to spend lot of time for that because we are talking about hundreds drafting views

 

Thanks,

albert

Hi,

 

I think It's not so simple but you could create a macro/addin with the function below and perform a copy between views. 

 

ElementTransformUtils.CopyElements(View, ICollection<ElementId>, View, Transform);

 

this post may help you to create an addin:

I hope it is helpful.

 

Looking forward to hear from you,

Regards

Luca
