I am trying to set up a Dynamic footing block that allows you to change the Diameter of the rebar. So far all I have been able to do is move the rebar around. I know I am missing something obvious. I have been through the block editor tutorial and it even shows a radius being changed. But it doesn't really show you how to accomplish this. A little help?

I'm going to move this over to the AutoCAD 2006 Dynamic Block forum as I feel this will be better served there.

Here is the block I have so far. As you can see it is very simple.

Thanks

Ok, I figured it out. It is simply a scale action on a linear parameter. Thanks anyway, This site is a life saver

BrentThanks for posting back your solution! :) I'm sure someone will benefit from reading this ( i'm sure I include myself in that statement).

You could also try a visibility parameter. It's another viable solution to the same problem.
