AutoCAD LT 2000 - Using the Calculator while in another command

[jake.6]

With AutoCAD LT 2000, is there any way to calculate a number while doing
an offset or scale command. I am looking for a macro that would allow me to:
- Press the offset or scale command button
- Calculate a number
- Offset a line or scale an object using the calculated result.

The standard AutoCAD has the calculator command that I have become used to
using and I am looking for something similar for the AutoCAD LT product.

Hi

Could you use the Calculator within Windows "calc.exe" ?

You can Copy/Cut & Paste between AutoCAD LT and this Calculator.

If you search for <Calculator> on the CADalyst web site you should get 16 results (sorry don't have time to go through them) -

A web search will turn-up a lot info on this subject.

Have a good one, Mike
