need help with dynamic block

Hi i would like to kno if i can give a name to each distance i give to my linear distance

when you go in properties / value set you can put either none , increment or list.

i took list and put my distance up. i could like to kno if i can put up a text telling me the true distance of the block.

Do you mean like this?

The number with the shade is an attribute that updates when I stretch the lintel with the dynamic stretch. I created that this morning from the link below. You do need to REGEN your drawing after you stretch the block whcih is a slight pain but still quicker.

I'm thinking that you're trying to say, have a block that is 100 units long, but the Linear Parameter is only 80 units long but you want the list to read "100"?

Not that I know of.

Can you post it?

Well i dont actually want the text to stay but i want to know if i can put numbers so when i stretch i know how long im stretching to

is your Dynamic Input turned on?

here it is so the line are the one that appear when you do your stretch. i want to see numbers for each stretch so i kno where im stopping

I've also done this where I put a dimension in Defpoints or a NonPlot layer and include it in the stretch action. It does stay visible on the block at all times though, so it's a grey colour so it doesn't look too cluttered.

You could put a NonPlot piece of text in at the tick mark locations. But they will always be visible.

And with Dynamic Input on you can just type in the length you want after you grab the Stretch Grip.

Well thanks for your time.. maybe when i know more about lisp ill be abbel to creat something that work for this but the information was good anyways thx alot

cheers !
