Fields with formulas not updating in block

[jpcadconsulting347236]

Hiya gang,

I'm working on a block for a client and I've hit a roadblock.

Basically the block is a slope arrow.

Upon insertion the user is prompted for two values stored in attributes:

• Slope High Point
• Slope Low Point

What I want is for the slope text in the block to display the slope as a percentage based on this formula:

((HighPoint-Lowpoint)/Distance)*100)

Where Highpoint and Lowpoint are the values entered by the user on insertion and Distance is the value of the Polar Stretch.

I can get Highpoint mnus Lowpoint to work, and I know I can resolve the distance of the stretch parameter, but I can't seem to make the complete formula work.

I can get each step of the formula to work so I have made a test block with multiple attributes, each with one step of the formula, and this works, but when ever you change the any of the values you have to regen like 4 times to get all the formulas to update.

I'd like the slope value to just change as you drag the grip. I'm sure it's just some syntax issue when I'm trying to do it all in one formula.

Block is attached, all attributes visible for troubleshooting sake. They are in the lower left and they represent:

• High Point of slope (entered by user on insertion)
• Low point of slope (entered by user on insertion)
• Difference in height
• Distance of stretch parameter
• Slope RAW (Difference in height divided by distance)
• Slope Percent (Slope RAW x100)

Hope you can shed some light on this for me.

Thanks in advance,
