How is it possible to make layouts with specific characters...

Hi everyone.

I 'm so happy for existing such forum.

I 'm working with autocad 2008 and 2010 (but more with 20088).

I 'm interesting to have a routine that can create layouts with specific legend with ability of self naming & numbering sheets and self zooming in to objects i select in model and self scaling with desired scale that i enter.

I 'm already fresh in lisp programming and learning it by myself.

My question:

"Is it possible to write such program?

Can it work with autocad 2010?

Is there anyone who has such routine?"

Thanks a lot.

Thanks Lee.

It is useful for some parts of my goal.

I know that my goal could be so difficult, but sure that it would be so timesaving if written.

I 'm looking for more and more completed routine that has the ability of self creation with spesific legend and naming and numbering and zooming in and scaling with my desired characters and i just select the sheet limits that i preparing in the model.

If you wanted the routine to be 'automatic' then you are likely to need to use reactors. I'm not sure exactly of your goal however - you mention automatic layout naming: what data would be used to name the layout?

Data used for naming layouts, depends on the size of paper that printed finally(such as A3-1 or A0-1). That size shoud be found from the limit i prepare in model tab.

Can you explane about reactors???

how can i learn about that?
