study : this tabs List Box with Tabs. This attribute specifies the placement of tabs in character width units. Possible value is a quoted string containing integers or floating-point numbers separated by spaces. Default = None. These values are used for vertically aligning columns of text in a 'popup_list' or 'list_box'. DCL Code Sample [code] lisp49af : dialog { //dialog name label = "tabs" ; //give it a label : list_box { //define a list box key = "lb1"; //give it a name label = "Select Bolt Type:"; //give it a label allow_accept = true; //allow double clicking list = "M20\t40LG\tGr. 8,8\n M16\t30LG\tGr. 4,6\n M30\t60LG\tGr. 8,8\n M12\t35LG\tGr. 4,6\n M8\t45LG\tGr. 8,8"; //define the list height = 6; //give it a height fixed_height = true; //fix the height } //end list box ok_cancel ; //predefined OK/Cancel button } //end dialog [/code]

Thank you!! You helped me a lot!

Last week I was writing something and thought , mm, have to write a function able to wblock a list of block names and totally forgot I wrote one before. The worst thing was I wrote it, oh I dunno, one or two months before. If it was like one or two decades, ok , but just a couple of months... think after not having a single day of vacation since 2012 its about time I do so. Maybe not a good time because of all the lockdowns and stuff but I hear Mars is lovely this time a year

you may have to experiment a little with the values for your tab stops. Code posted above misses the red line with it just says next tab stop is on 8 , 16 and 24 , but you may want to have "4 14 28" , just use code above and change it to fit your needs

You frustrate me... nearly 24 hours later and it's still working and not broken yet. Thanks. I save the drawing after your routine and that updates the change in the external reference dialog.

The drawing assumes the size of the solar system is defined by the distance from the sun to Pluto which is about 4.5 billion km. Double to get the diameter of the solar system and then divide by 10^15 you get about 0.00001 km = 0.01 m = 10 mm. 10 mm is about as small as you can measure in an AutoCAD drawing of the solar system. In my early days in CAD the system I used was limited to 7 significant figures (similar to today's 3ds Max). We could model the continental US (about 3000 miles) to a precision of about 1 foot. With today's AutoCAD the precision would be about 0.00000001 feet!

There is a dwg called solar very old and its the Solar system rings with a dot, click on the dot and its a planet, ok you can go to the moon, then to moon lander, right down to the base plate of the lander leg. Ps zoom in on bolt "made in china" The point being the order of precision with big numbers. SOLAR.DWG

We used add-ons with R14, most if not all of those were eliminated with 2000i (barely used 2000 before we moved to 2000i), never used R13 very much if at all. Are you running AutoCAD 2000i or AutoCAD 2000? IIRC, AutoCAD 2000 was unsupported on Win 2000, but ran, that's one reason we moved on to 2000i. With the add-ons R14 wasn't as good as 2000i, don't remember if 2000 was much better or not, but it probably was or we would have stayed on R14.
