vpatterson Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Ok I see other post about this problem but none pertaining to the exact problem I am having. I have a dynamic block with several parameters. Visibility, rotate, and stretch. I am trying to keep the parameter for the stretch to stay when I rotate. Is this possible? Please help.

SLW210 Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Is the stretch parameter included in the rotate action? You need something like this? Section Arrow.dwg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuns Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 When you are selecting the objects to rotate, select the parameters as well. They should rotate as long as they are selected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven-g Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 It should be possible, but will depend on what exactly it all does, can you post the block ? It's always easier to answer if there is an example Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vpatterson Posted October 8, 2013 Author Share Posted October 8, 2013 ok that worked for the stretch, now I am trying to add a flip do I have to do the same thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuns Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Yes, same thing every time you set a new action. You always have to select the parameters that you want to move whenever you move the block around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steven-g Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Having a rotate and a polar parameter is a bit awkward, does this work or do you need to twist the bubble as well? Drawing (1).dwg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vpatterson Posted October 8, 2013 Author Share Posted October 8, 2013 I have fixed the polar parameter im trying stretch and scale now and its not working the bubble should stretch from the top and one of the sides Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbankston Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 She means that she wants the bubble to stretch at the top and scale on the side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
