Is there a GATTE equivalent for LT2025

Ok so we will do drawings, sometimes with many pages.

In our title block with have an attribute for the name of the client.

Originally it is blank, but quite often the project leader does not give us the client name until late in the game when we've done many layout tabs.

Now you can understand going into each layout just to put in the client name is a PITA.

So is there a gatte equivalent I can use for LT2025

@komondormrex only a very tiny little thing. I know that sometimes our cad guys (myself included) will not always have the capslock on.

Is there any way to make it so that when the attribute tag is typed in it automatically goes all caps?

I can see the image,

but I can't check blocks, blockreferences and Attributes.

 

PLEASE share this title part (orignial drawing, delete all other stuff).

I think that's fair, lots of helpers, lots of work, then we should at least be able to resolve the problem.

@cadffm @komondormrex has almost got it perfectly sorted, I just asked if he could make it so that when typing in the attribute to change it automatically changes to all caps

And I ask about a sample file where applyclient doesn't work ( the .dwg you screenshot)

@cadffm Here is a sanitised drawing with all the relevant information removed which will not change the client name

and you tested this file before upload?

cadffm: If test1. faild, do the same as before

              Delete all problematic entries, save the file under a different name.
              Close the file, open this file, load applyclient and run it.
              Is the problem still there? Then share this DWG.

 

 

If so, sorry. The code works very well in LT2025.1.1, what I installed specially for you and your files.

 

"2 attribute(s) update."

Attachment is 100% the same code as above (13349036#13346232)

@cadffm I don't know what's changed, but that's working now.

I shall use both yours and komondormrex lisps

Then everything is fine,
I assume that the problems were not due to the program itself.

 

-
I just want to make it clear that the Lisp is by @Moshe-A , not really mine.

Thanks.  I still think that fields are much better than programming for such tasks.
