Lippens Infra Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Hello all, I have a file where the height of certain points is annotated as text. The precision is 0.0001 which is too much. I have like for example a text line containing 13.6489. Would it be possible to adapt all text entities at once? and maybe even a correct round off? If i could shorten the string to 13.64 that would be ok, but even better would be 13.65 If not, there are also blocks (crosses) which have the height as Z attribute. Is it possible to extract that Z coordinate and annotate it? Thanks in advande Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pkenewell Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Please upload a sample drawing. Need to know if the TEXT has only the number, If is is in top level drawing or in a block, are the Text objects FIELDS, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will need to change the layer name in part of the filter (8 . "LEVELS") so that it matches the layer you height text is on. (vl-load-com) (defun c:lev22 ( / *error* c_doc) (defun *error* ( msg ) (if (not (wcmatch (strcase msg) "*BREAK*,*CANCEL*,*EXIT*")) (princ (strcat "\nOops an Error : " msg " occurred."))) (princ) );end_*error*_defun (setq c_doc (vla-get-activedocument (vlax-get-acad-object))) (ssget "_X" '((0 . "TEXT")(8 . "LEVELS"))) (vlax-for t_obj (vla-get-activeselectionset c_doc) (vlax-put-property t_obj 'textstring (rtos (atof (vlax-get-property t_obj 'textstring)) 2 2)) );end_for (princ) );end_defun 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGAL Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 For lipens the rtos function controls how many decimals so (rtos x 2 2) the 2 is decimal the next 2 is number of decimal places. (rtos x 2 3) 123.456 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lippens Infra Posted August 31, 2020 Author Share Posted August 31, 2020 thanks a lot! i'm learning. This works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGAL Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 A bit more saves hard coding layer name. (setq lay (cdr (assoc 8 (entget (car (entsel "\nPlease pick a text")))))) (ssget "_X" (list (cons 0 "TEXT")(cons 8 lay))) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
