ahyin Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 Dear All, I want to use reactor function to help me save the file being plot and also add a plot stamp after the plot command. The plot stamp will collect the time of this drawing being save. Is it difficult to do that ? Thousand thanks ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tharwat Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 Here is one in diesel code you can use for getting time, but you have to put it in a RTEXT . $(EDTIME, 0, MON DD"," YYYY ! H:MMAM/PM) And here is another one to get file name you can also add it if you would like to . $(GETVAR, "DWGNAME") Regards, Tharwat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tharwat Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 Yes. First save the codes that I posted before in a file of Notepad then follow the steps below . There is a toggle in the PLOT message box in right down corner called 'plot stamp on' so check this box and a small box would appear beside it and press it to enter and you can load the file from that message box. Good luck Tharwat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahyin Posted September 2, 2010 Author Share Posted September 2, 2010 Thanks Tharwat ! Is it possible force to check this box on and put you code into this field by lisp ? And I'm take into consideration of the text height when I plot in model space or paper space. Thanks again Tharwat. Regard Yes. First save the codes that I posted before in a file of Notepad then follow the steps below .

BlackBox Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 There's another option... You could add an attribute to your titleblocks which has fields that automatically update when you save, plot or publish which displays: Saved: Date Time Username | Plotted: Date Time Username | FullFilePath | LayoutName Note - Where highlighted text are fields. This is simple to do, sustainable, and does not require each user to 'remember' to check the plotstamp box during publish. :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
