mgt Posted June 2, 2003 Share Posted June 2, 2003 maybe this is possible within the program already- but has anyone written a script for printing the file path on sheets? This is helpful when the number of sheets in a project gets up there (and helps with those who for some reason cannot follow server filing procedures). I know this is possible in AutoCAD... something like: Computer Name/Project Files/20-20/Building A/First Floor Plan etc... I'm thinking that this would be easier in OS X (you know, with unix and all...) (Mac OS 10.2.6, VW 10.1.2) -mgt- Quote Link to comment
matto Posted June 2, 2003 Share Posted June 2, 2003 Try Vectordepot.com for it first. i know since VW v8 there has been a date stamp object that will stamp the file name on the drawing. but also there is a command in VW that will return the name of the file to a string variable. GetFName:STRING; that you could use to write your own. Quote Link to comment
mgt Posted June 8, 2003 Author Share Posted June 8, 2003 i checked vectordepot, but no luck... i'm relatively new to writing scripts for VW, but i'll give it a try. [edit]whoops- i did find something... it works great with VW10 thanks again [/edit] thanks- -mgt- [ 06-08-2003, 04:25 PM: Message edited by: mgt ] Quote Link to comment
