Hi In this new version, it's possible to enter the text before the first text you want to insert from the keyboard or, as before, select it on the screen. Additionally, it will now increment numeric, alphabetic, or alphanumeric text strings without any restrictions (except for non-alphanumeric characters, of course). @leonucadomi As for your suggestion to extend the code's functionality to block attributes, I may do something about this in the future. However, I'm sure there must be simpler routines that would do the job just as well. There are several block experts on this forum who will probably have something to say about this. But if not, I'll try to do it myself. ;************************ G L A V C V S ************************* ;************************** F E C I T *************************** (defun c:txtIncrem (/ tam capa ind para a c cl txsel le l s dameTexto obtcad ent loc tipC nC ps add errores error0 ) (defun errores (mens) (setq *error* error0) (prin1) ) (defun dameTexto (cad / v r l daleVuelta) ;;; WRITE HERE THE CODE YOU NEED TO CUSTOMIZE THE TEXT YOU WANT TO ENTER OR CREATE (defun daleVuelta (a) (cond ((and (> a 64) (< a 91)) (if (> (setq a (+ a 1)) 90) (setq a -65) a)) ((and (> a 96) (< a 123)) (if (> (setq a (+ a 1)) 122) (setq a -97) a)) ((and (> a 47) (< a 58)) (if (> (setq a (+ a 1)) 57) (setq a -48) a)) ) ) (foreach v (reverse (vl-string->list cad)) (if (or (not r) (minusp r)) (setq l (cons (abs (setq r (daleVuelta v))) l)) (setq l (cons v l)) ) ) (vl-list->string (if (minusp r) (cons (if (= r -48) 49 (car l)) l) l)) ) (setq error0 *error* *error* errores ) (princ (setq s "Select PREVIOUS number text or type it...

Welcome to CADTutor! I have moved your thread to the CAD Management Forum. Please post in the most appropriate Forum. All of your links but the last one are dead ends. I use similar to this when I do Architecture drawings or usually when I use AutoCAD Architecture, I use the layers that it creates for which objects I am creating. Standard CAD Layers for Architectural Drawings Are you using AutoCAD Architecture or just vanilla AutoCAD?
