diesel to select last caracter filename

Hello i use diesel for attributte fields and in scripts.

I use,

%%

for getting the drawing name. Playing with the numbers to get a goot result.

But I have drawings with the name for example MDG-BM-001-A.

I only want have the last character (Revison A) But the file/drawing names can contain more or less characters so this Diesel macro does not always give a good result. i am looking for a Diesel macro that counts from the right to the left.

Thanks,

I think this might do it

%<\AcDiesel $(substr,$(getvar,dwgname),$(-,$(strlen,$(getvar,dwgname)),4),1)>%

Superrrr Steven-g, it works.

Thanks

Steven,

Is it possible to combine your Diesel macro above with:

(setq CurrDwgName (getvar "CTAB"))

(setq Fname (substr CurrDwgName 1 (- (strlen CurrDwgName)0)))

(setq name (strcat (getvar "DWGPREFIX") Fname".pdf"))

;Command:

FILEDIA

;Enter new value for FILEDIA :

0

;Command:

-plot

!name

;Command:

FILEDIA

;;;Enter new value for FILEDIA :

1

To get a pdf with the TAB name and the revision letter of the file name?

like: tabname-A

thanks

Sorry that's Lisp I use LT so I can't help with that.

No,

Its a script that I use for plotting to PDF without the file name . only the tab name.

Maybe someone else ?
