Fields and Lisp

[vlee]

Hello everyone,

Is it possible to populate a field using Lisp code? I just want to show the number of layouts in a drawing in a field. I haven't found a way to accomplish this with DIESEL.
Any suggestions will be a great help.

Thanks

Vito

A simple round-about-way is to use LISP to populate something that a Diesel expression can see, such as one of the User system variables.

That's what I ended up doing. I was hoping there would be a cleaner way.
