Martijn Wingelaar Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 I've got a question. Is it possible to add text from a drawing to a report. What i want to do is link text what i add to the drawing to a report. Instead of adding symbols to the drawing. I try to combine steel wire ropes to get a total length. If i add symbols it's al lot of work to align them. Quote Link to comment
michaelk Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 You are making a 5 meter wire rope assembly by combining a 1 meter, 1 meter, 2 meter, 1/2 meter and 1/2 meter cables? Take a look at Sam Jones' cable tool. http://www.autoplotvw.com (If you're doing rigging, you probably already know his hoist tools.) It can divide cables into sections and create reports. If that is close but not quite what you want, you might ask him if you can try the beta of the new version. It has more features that might help you. If you just want to get text into a worksheet, check out this thread: https://techboard.vectorworks.net/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Main=44635&Number=224457#Post224457 hth mk Quote Link to comment
