[include files]

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

[version problem]

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.

[printing worksheets]

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?

[version problem]

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

[update event]

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??

[update event]

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

[update event]

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

[wire schedule]

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.
