    Default Lisps that will rotate text within a dynamic block

    Hey all, I'm wondering if anyone has run across a lisp routine that will rotate text within a dynamic block. I have the flip dynamic built into the block, but we have 1000s of these blocks in our drawings. It would save TONS of time if we could pick and go.
    I found a LISP that numbers the text within the block in a "pick and go" manner and it's saving lots of time.
    Any how TIA.

    Are you saying that your dynamic block isn't capable of doing what you want? Maybe what you really need is help with your block? Anyway, it would be helpful if we had an example or at least a picture of what you're trying to do.

    Maybe post one of the blocks and show how you want to rotate the text.

    Here's what I'm striving for. The block has a flip/rotate dynamic, it just takes a little extra time to orient. My hope was for a LISP that would flip the attribute automagically.74.jpg

    Like peter requested nobody's going to be able to code modifying that block without you attaching it for us to test the code on.

    Also, there is no such thing as "automagically' when it comes to programming. You have to tell it exactly what to do. That means you have to tell us exactly how it would perform and under what conditions. "When I do this, it should do that".

    I would like for the attribute in the block to flip 180 degrees when tapped. I was lucky enough to find a LISP that incrementally advances the number of the attribute by a given factor when you touched the block. I was hoping to find something like that. I know I'm asking a lot considering that what I have works. It was just a hope that somebody had already run across something like this.
