Lisp to set cannoscale by selecting dims

[boatman38]

Hello,

I am still green at lisp creation.  I would like to create a lisp to change my cannoscale to match that of an existing dimension in model space.  we use tabs and therefore have many different scales for the vports in our drawings.  i want to be able to type my command, have acad ask for a annotative dimension to match, i click it, then the lisp resets my cannoscale to match.

Thank you for any help i can get.

Hi,

try loading the attached LSP file.

The ENT-SCALE function sets the current annotation scale to

the displayed annotation scale of a selected annotative object.

Hi,

the previous version will fall over if the entity selected

has been changed from being annotative to not being annotative.

The attached revised version allows for this.
