Help with site tag lisp

[DC-MWA]

Hi all,

We have a little lisp we use for tagging vicinity maps. It was hacked together by me from a lisp I received from a friend. My lisping skills are limited to say the least.

The issue is we have to pick to the right or it fails. So we pick to the right and mirror the tag. This seems minor, but in our office, every additional click adds up.

At one point I used pt1 and pt6 for the solid, but the shadow is backwards and it looks wrong.

See image for clarification.

The lisp is attached.

As usual, thank you in advance for any assistance received.

@DC-MWA ,

Is it not possible for you to use a block instead? Seems more practical to me. See attached.

Best,

Try the attached.  Minimally tested.  It sets a 'pointleft' variable which is T or nil depending on whether the pointer is to the left of the label, and uses that to decide which way to go for other point variables.

This is perfect. Thank you.

Have you looked at a dynamic block so could have 4 visibilty states 2 left 2 right taking into account up or down of selected point. Need a smarter person than me for dynamic block.

To Kent very nice.

I do use dynamic blocks for certain tasks. I already had the lisp that we've been using so it made sense use the lisp.

Thanks for your input

😉

@DC-MWA ,

Here, give this one a chance at least. Improved from the first one. This is definitely what you're looking for (see attached).

You have my attention sir!

Can you attach this version that seems to get the shadow flip right?

Thank you. on my 1st cup this morning.

This is very cool and a great learning tool for the power of dynamic blocks.

I apologize. I should have been paying attention closer to whom is sending what.

Frankly, I got a little excited.

Thank you very much for assistance and time.
