    Default Getting Current Visibility State via Fields...

    Does anyone know of a way to get a Dynamic Blocks current Visibility State programatically and display it inside a text Field?

    I have converted our Titleblock's Key Plan into a Dynamic Block, with different Visibility States that show a hatch over the currently selected area of the building. For example, say I have a building that has been split up into areas A, B, & C. I create a new sheet for Area A, click on my Key Plan and select the "A" Visibility State, which puts a Hatch over that area and leaves B & C Blank.

    What I am trying to accomplish is to have the portion of our Titleblock that states what area of the Building the current sheet applies to, i.e. "Area-A", filled in automatically by displaying the current Visibilty State of the Key Plan Dynamic Block. Is there a way to do this?

    Thanks for the help.

    Yes.

    In the text choose "insert field". For field type, select "object". Use the select object icon to select the dynamic block. Select "visibility".
