Hi everyone.
Replying to an old post I know but it's about exactly the topic I'm working on. I'm trying to create a similar block to the pile cap but I also need to be able to rotate the block and have the points correctly report WCS coordinates. Does anyone know if this is possible? I haven't played around with trying to add trigonometric formulas to fields yet. I guess that may be a solution but it's somewhat complicated. Any easy work around?
Cheers,
Phil
Is it possible to have such a field in the paperspace (in a layout...) but referencing an object in the modelspace?
(my idea is to have a field in a layout that gathers the X coordinate of a point on modelspace ...)
I've done this with a field in paper space to the area of a polyline in model space so I don't see why it wouldn't work for the X a point as well.
I made the field while in model space so I could select the object target for the field and then used CHspace to move it to paperspace thru a viewport
Hi,
I have created a block to have the coordinates using formulas in fields. In addition to this, i would like to have the third digit after decimal rounded to nearest integer.
Ex: In X = -317.038 and in Y= -2.928, i want those values to be rounded to X=-317.040 & Y= -2.930.
As of now this is the formula i have used as of now. rxof(w2u(20552.8421, 404985.7164, 0.0000)/1000).
Request your help to solve this.
Thank you.
There is a post on this blog: http://blog.jtbworld.com/2005/04/aut...in-fields.html that should help you out.
Other than that, if you want rounding to two decimal places, you can set that in the precision field. If you need to show a trailing zero, then that could be suffixed text. Bit of a hack, but it should look right.
Hi, thank you. I tried that blog, couldnt understand it, so i tried your second suggestion and it did
Thanks, Rajesh
