kenth Posted November 8, 2013 Posted November 8, 2013 I have searched everywhere for this problem but so far no one's every mentioned it. Here's my problem: I'm using a modified version of Edwin's Prakoso "Automatic Coordinate Labeling" Lisp routine. I'm using multileaders instead of leaders. I have set up the multileader style for it to appear vertically. The problem is when I copy those multileaders from one drawing file to another, the lines of the multileader "extends" itself beyond the text, like so: Another problem arises when I try to edit the multileader text, or when I changed something in the Multileader style dialog box. The lines "extend" themselves before the text like so. This extension is indefinite, it go on and on. BEFORE: AFTER: Quote
tzframpton Posted November 8, 2013 Posted November 8, 2013 Can you upload a sample drawing for us to take a look at? Thanks! Quote
Tuns Posted November 8, 2013 Posted November 8, 2013 Could something in the lisp routine effect it? It may be something we can't fix because it might be a software issue. Quote
kenth Posted November 9, 2013 Author Posted November 9, 2013 Here's a sample and the lisp I'm using: ; Automatic coordinate labeling ; Edwin Prakoso ; http://cad-notes.com ; ; Limitation ; ---------- ; Will use current leader style and current units setting (defun c:ll (/ p y x ptcoord textloc) (while (setq p (getpoint "\nPick Point: ")) (setq textloc (getpoint "\nPick Label Location: ")) (setq x (rtos (car p))) (setq y (rtos (cadr p))) (setq ptcoord (strcat "{\\H0.70x;\\S" y "/" x ";}\ ")) (command "_MLEADER" p textloc ptcoord "") ) ) TunsCould something in the lisp routine effect it? It may be something we can't fix because it might be a software issue. I'm not so good with lisp language, but AFAIK even multileaders created manually are also affected. == 10 mins after posting the thread, I realized I could just use QLEADER and MTEXT in my lisp instead of MLEADER for the same goal. And without the "line extending" copying/editing bug. sample.dwg Quote
