Can block receive parameter input?

Hi, here what i'm trying to achieve :
When you add a block can you make it request you to select a polyline object so you can use this polyline property into the block. Like create a quick tag to give the lenght of the selected polyline.

 

If its possible how to request it and how to acces it.

 

Thanks

Dynamic Blocks do not "request you" to do anything: if you want a user to get a prompt you will need to customize with LISP first.

I'm not much familiarise with LISP but i do know code

Can you add a LISP script to a block?Or LISP are more like in the project template?

You can't add LISP into a block.

LISP is a program to automate your task. For example in your case, you can run a LISP routine to place a particular block then it asks to select an object. The routine will read the object properties and input them in the block attributes.
