    Post Checkbox for displaying items in Dynamic Block?

    Apologies if this has been asked a million times before, but I'm only a few weeks into using AutoCAD LT 2014 and I could do with some help from the pros!

    I'm trying to create a dynamic block that contains multiple (8 to be exact) separate items that can be shown and hidden independently of each other (I was thinking of something like a list of checkboxes to select which would be shown/hidden, but I'm not sure if this is possible). The only way that I know of doing this would be to create a visibility parameter and different visibility states, but I don't much fancy creating 40320 layers to achieve it this way... there must be an easier way?!

    Thanks in advance!

    Not that I know of. You would need to create a visibility state for each of the combinations of visibility.
    If you have a technical question, please find the appropriate forum and ask it there.
    You will get a quicker response from your fellow AUGI members than if you sent it to me via a PM or email.

    You are stuck in the LT environment and currently Full if you had access to that.
    There is a Lisp that will add Multi-Vis states to a Block but it does not work beyond 2011 products if I remember correctly.
