Hello everyone,

Is it possible to extract dimension text from dimension and place it on side of drawing. Just like coordinats list to make field dimensioning easier.

Thank you.

Ivan,

I hope it will help:

(defun u:copyDimText

(command "text"  pause "" ""

             (rtos(vla-get-measurement (vlax-ename->vla-object (car(entsel))))2 2)

)

)

This will ask You of text placement and dimension from with You wish to have text pasted.

In statement (rtos .... 2 2) You can set Your units & precision settings.
