Numbering Ascending order

Hi All

I am working on seating for a curved auditorium. I was wondering if there was an easy way to number them in ascending order like A1, A2 etc. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Kat

Look in Express Tools, text, don't remember the exact name.

Also search on web for Autonumb lisp program. cad.digitalmedianet.com/articles/viewarticle.jsp?id=7017

ConsecutiveTeXT.lsp

YAY! I knew there was a command to do that. The problem doesn't really come up that often though. Thank you! That will save some mouse clicking time.

For your library of "useful stuff" you might like the attached lisp (file) routine.

callout.lsp

If you only have LT, or if you dont like lisps try the following two marcos-

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Put the following string on a user defined menu button.

*^C^C_text;\;;$M=$(+,$(getvar,USERI1),1);setvar;US ERI1;$M=$(+,$(getvar,USERI1),1);

This puts a new text with an incremented value on the drawing with each click of your mouse.

You can also use SETVAR to change USERI1 to 1 below whatever initial value you want.

(Many thanks to ZOOMHARIS on the AUGI forum).

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

AND this one increments text that is already on the drawing

*^C^C_.Change;\;;;;;;$M=$(getvar,USERI1);_.Setvar; USERI1;$(+,1 ,$(getvar,USERI1))

This time though set USERI1 to the value you want to start with.

(Thanks to MIKE.PERRY the AUGI director).
