LISP add a space to output

[ryan.rettig]

I have a LISP file i use for line numbers in my single line drawings. I would like to add a space before the number out put example below. 

Currently I input the suffix like N -, i then get prompted for the starting number so example 101, its current out put would be N -101. I would like to change the file so it automatically adds a space between the suffix and the starting number.  

Thanks

Hi,

>> I would like to change the file

No file attached.

If that lisp code works only with some specific dwg-structure or objects then a sample dwg-file would be great too.

In the picture above i would type in the command for the LISP, it would prompt for a suffix in this case i put C- *enter* then it prompts for starting number 101 *enter* i then click the attributes or text i want to change. Currently it outputs like C -101 i would like to put a space between the suffix and prefix.

[That's the prefix, not the suffix, but in any case....]

Change this:

(setq curStr(strcat rnm:Pref(itoa rnm:Start)))

to this:

(setq curStr (strcat rnm:Pref " " (itoa rnm:Start)))

But bear in mind that it will add that space in any usage of the routine, so you might want to make a separate one for when you want the space added, if you would ever want the capability of not  adding the space.

Rayn,

if you add the space you want in respond to the prefix prompt then you would get exactly want you want - no?!

with how this LISP works it does not if i did the prefix and added a space or even a space before entering the starting number. This is why i was looking for a way to add it in the file which i have now found.

Thanks
