Yes. It's for the International Version.

I made a small workaround for this problem. I placed the script in the object context menue, so its always present. The function is limited to single dimensions, maybe some solutions for chain dimensions here in the forum. so here comes my script for setting the elevation in SIA dim. { //// Set Dim Elevation (c) B. Schambeck. Distribute Freely. //// } PROCEDURE DimElevation; VAR H1 : HANDLE; dialogOK,ShElev, CusElev : BOOLEAN; dialog1,sx,x : INTEGER; elev,y : REAL; lead,trail : STRING; { //// Dialog Handler //// } PROCEDURE Dialog_Handler(VAR item:LONGINT; data:LONGINT); BEGIN CASE item OF SetupDialogC:BEGIN SetBooleanItem(dialog1,4,TRUE); SetBooleanItem(dialog1,5,TRUE); H1:= FSActLayer; x:= GetPrefInt(170); IF (x = 8) THEN BEGIN sx := 10; END; IF (x = 9) THEN BEGIN sx := 1000; END; y:=GetObjectVariableReal(H1,47); SetEditReal(dialog1, 7, 3, y/sx); END; 1:BEGIN { get settings } GetBooleanItem(dialog1, 4, ShElev); GetBooleanItem(dialog1, 5, CusElev); dialogOK := GetEditReal(dialog1, 7, 3, elev); GetItemText(dialog1, 9, lead); GetItemText(dialog1, 11, trail); END; END; END; { //// Dialog Creation //// } BEGIN dialog1 := CreateLayout('Dim Elevation',FALSE,'OK','Cancel'); CreateCheckBox(dialog1,4,'Show Elevation'); CreateCheckBox(dialog1,5,'Custom Elevation'); CreateStaticText(dialog1,6,'Elevation:',-1); CreateEditReal(dialog1,7,3,0,26); CreateStaticText(dialog1,8,'Leader:',-1); CreateEditText(dialog1,9,'',26); CreateStaticText(dialog1,10,'Trailer:',-1); CreateEditText(dialog1,11,'',26); SetFirstLayoutItem(dialog1, 4); SetBelowItem (dialog1,4,5,0,0); SetBelowItem (dialog1,5,6,0,0); SetRightItem (dialog1,6,7,0,0); SetBelowItem (dialog1,6,8,0,0); SetRightItem (dialog1,8,9,0,0); SetBelowItem (dialog1,8,10,0,0); SetRightItem (dialog1,10,11,0,0); AlignItemEdge (dialog1,6,1,1010,1); AlignItemEdge (dialog1,8,1,1010,1); AlignItemEdge (dialog1,10,1,1010,1); AlignItemEdge (dialog1,7,3,1010,1); AlignItemEdge (dialog1,9,3,1010,1); AlignItemEdge (dialog1,11,3,1010,1); IF VerifyLayout(dialog1) THEN BEGIN IF RunLayoutDialog(dialog1, Dialog_Handler) = 1 THEN BEGIN x:= GetPrefInt(170); IF (x = 8) THEN BEGIN sx := 10; END; IF (x = 9) THEN BEGIN sx := 1000; END; H1:= FSActLayer; SetObjectVariableBoolean(H1,46,ShElev); SetObjectVariableBoolean(H1,1249,CusElev); SetObjectVariableReal(H1,47,elev*sx); SetObjectVariableString(H1,48,lead); SetObjectVariableString(H1,49,trail); ResetObject(H1); END; END; END; Run(DimElevation);

the same here. its greyed out. "set elevation" is a core feature for me. without that, version 2012 is useless. i expect a quick solution for this bug.

Dear Maarten, Thank you for your help. Everything works fine now. in my script there was a fault. Accidentally i had FOR laycnt:=0 TO NumLayers DO instead of FOR laycnt:=0 TO NumLayers DO paul

Dear Maarten the changes don't work. The problem is that the script counts the symbols in all layers not only in the selected ones. How can you tell the script only to count the symbols in layers, contained in the DynWahllayer array? paul

Dear Maarten, thank you for your quick reply. There are a few little faults. "FOR laycnt:=1 TO NumLayers DO" should be "FOR laycnt:=0 TO NumLayers DO". But the other fault, i have no idea. The script give always the total quantity of symbols from the first layer in list (regardless if the layer is selected or not) to the last selected layer. any ideas? Paul

the problem is that the dynarray 'DynWahlLayer' has not the right settings. VW crashes. What are the right settings for giving the selected layers over to the array?

Dear maarten, i used now a listbox. the listbox will be filled with the layers. but how can i now give the selected layers to my searchstring? PROCEDURE HANDLEOK; BEGIN ALLOCATE DynWahlLayer[0..posSel+1]; counter := 0; posSel := 0; GetSelChoice(7,posSel,position,WahlLayer); DynWahlLayer[counter] := WahlLayer; REPEAT counter := counter+1; posSel := posSel+1; GetSelChoice(7,posSel,position,WahlLayer); DynWahlLayer[counter] := WahlLayer; UNTIL (counter>position); gName := GetField(5); vargName:=concat('(','S=',CHR(39),'*',gName,'*',CHR(39),') & (L IN [',DynWahlLayer[counter],'])'); ForEachObject(SetInfo,vargName);

i'm sorry, even basics are lost with me. paul

Dear maarten, i use win and tried your script "LaagNaarDWG", but i can only select lines in order. What is your way doing it. paul

Dear maarten, in this case ListBox is not the right choice i think, because you can only select layers in appropriate order, not for example the first layer in list the third and so on. I'm looking for a ListBrowser similar to the example listed under CreateLB in http://scs-inc.us/Other/VSFR/ Paul

Hello Pat, Hello Maarten. Your script works fine, so far. I added a dialog to enter a searchstring for the symbolnames in the drawing. Also this works fine. Now i wanted to add a browerList to limit the search only on layers, which i check. But this i can not make working. May you have an idea. Paul

Thanks Pat, Thanks Maarten for your help!!!!!!! Paul

Dear Pat, Dear Maarten, i see here are masters at work and i'm just a greenhorn, like my membername says. So here is my last question. How can i now extract the quantity of each symbol out of the array and label my symbols?
