    Default Setting out co-ordinates

    Hi,

    Does anyone know if it is possible to have a block that contains text that will display the co-ordinates of said block depending upon it's location. This would be very useful for setting-out buildings as you could simply locate this block on the points of the building you wanted to set out.

    Thanks in advance,



    Trev

    Hi

    Take a look at FIELDS to accomplish this.

    Have a good one, Mike

    I also have a number of LT seats and was hoping to find a way for those staff memebers to be capable of doing the same.

    Thanks.

    Hi Trevor (I hope I have that correct, please accept my apology if I am incorrect)

    Then I think this thread would be better in the ACAD LT General forum.

    If you agree, I will happily move it there.

    Moving thread from Autocad General forum to this one as it will be better served here. Thank you!
