Include files are being very intermittent for me does anyone have more info on the format for the external file? Anything?

Thanks for the reply. That does work, to cut and paist. The problem is that I have a lot of parameter info that You can't cut and paist. If there is no to go backwards then I am probably better off writing all scripts in an older version if I want them to be backward compatible.

When printed cell borders are always ON unless I turn off the pen or change pen color to white. I'm using Arch 12 and I don't remember having this problem on previous versions. What's the trick? Is this a bug?

Once I edit old scripts with VW12 they become useless in version 11, not even recognized. Anyone know how to fixe this?

Good information! Thanks Jeff I was editing the record in the data pane. If I edit the parameter in the plug-in object "shape" pane it does update on the drawing the way I wanted it to do, perfect. Now I am trying to write a script (plug-in tool) to edit the plug-in object. I now know that editing the parameter does the job, but the new scipt (edit tool) is giving me an error " { Error: Assignment to a constant is not allowed. }". I guess a parameter is a constant? Is it possible to edit (re-initialize) the value of the parameter from a script??

Chrissy, Thanks for responding. I did finally find the redraw function it works but it is overkill. In the Plug-in editor under properties in the script execution section there is an option called "Reset Only", "Reset on Move". This is what does work except I don't want have to move the object to get a reset to occur. Does any one know how to reset the script instead of redrawing the entire drawing. Thanks

I have a script that creates an object and numbers it in a record format and on the drawing, it works great. But when I edit the number in the object info pallet the drawing doesn't update unless I move it. I know there is a check box for this and script event. What do I need to add to my script to keep things constantly updated. Please help

I am looking for an easy way to draw wire diagrams, draw lines to represent wires and give them records and text (ID's) on each end to create a list of all lines/wires. Basically I want symbols that would be just a line with records. Please help if anyone has any ideas.
