Link a dimension to an attribute?

[dfuehrer]

Hello all,

I am wondering if it is possible to link the value of a selected dimension to an attribute? The attribute would have to update if the dimension's length were to be edited.

Thoughts?

Thanks!

Sure, create an object field using the dim's measurement, format%lu precision%pr, prefix & suffix[,]. Create an example then look at the Field expression: at the bottom to see what to include in the field with strcat. First verify the object type, get object, and use (vla-get-objectid object) for the objectid to use in the field.

OK... Clear as mud. Sorry.
