USERR1 variable display

[info]

Using Rtext, is there a way to display the value assigned to the USERR1 variable as a 3 place decimal?

Hi @info,

Great question.  There does not appear to be a way to do this directly from the RTEXT command, text formatting appear to be limited to style, height, and rotation. 

There may be a way to do this using DIESEL, the members of the AutoCAD Customization Forum would be a great resource for how to do this.

Thank you, Do I need to repost this to the other forum?

Yes [to the question of whether it can be done -- no, you don't need to post to the Customization Forum].

RTEXT command, Diesel option, put in:

$(rtos, $(getvar, userr1), 2, 3)

The setting of your DIMZIN System Variable will determine whether leading and/or trailing zeros are displayed.  If you change the value, the displayed value can be updated with REGEN.

Thank you, that did it.
