DVDM Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 I deal with drawings containing many 'paste as block' blocks, with random names. Renaming those blocks with the 'rename' command is far from ideal, because the rename dialogue box doesn't show a preview of the block you're renaming. You have to remember the block name before entering the rename dialogue. Simply clicking on the block to rename is a great way to select the block you want to rename. I never waste time loading a lisp; if I find a useful routine, i add it to a master lisp that's always loaded and always ready to be used. I spoke to soon though, as this routine redefines only the selected block as a new block, whereas I was hoping it would rename the existing block and all it's instances. Still cool and with its uses, but not what i need Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
