Routine to count the number of Layouts in a drawing

[pgastelum77763]

Does anybody know about a lisp routine that counts the layout tabs in the DWG?

Also to set up a detail callout so that if you renumber the details, the callouts automatically update?

(length (vl-remove "Model" (layoutlist)))

Not sure what you want for the other......

Is this a field? or a text line for a lisp routine? I do not know how to write lisp routines.

That's a line of vlisp that counts the number of layouts. To get a working lisp you'd need to add a little bit.
So are you looking for someone to write this for you? That's no fun! It should be pretty easy to do yourself if you give it a shot. www.afralisp.com has a nice simple tutorial that can get you started. If sure everyone here will be happy to help you put it together.

So sorry to report this bit of sad coding news, but in response to the last post - Afralisp is no more.

Yea....what happened to afralisp??

[Jeff_M]

Afralisp closed last week, apparently due to a dispute between the Site's owner and the Hosting provider. I do know that things are in the works trying to return the site to us......

That site doesn't let you use any of the tutorials.

That's awful! I loved that site! I really hope it comes back because I've always thought it was far and away the best online resource for learning lisp. Hmmm... maybe AUGI should take up the challenge?
