pixel8er Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Hi all I've added an automatic updating scale bar to the tool palette. But the field is broken on insertion. I think I've worked out why - the ObjectID of the viewport (in the field expression) changes each time the scale bar is inserted - hence the field is no longer linked to the viewport. How can I fix it so that the field stays linked? Is there a way to lock the ObjectID so it doesn't change when inserted? Just to clarify - I know how to re-link the field...I'm hoping to find a way to make it so that it doesn't get broken when inserted.

SLW210 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Not possible with OOTB AutoCAD, AFAIK, you may be able to reconnect to the VP with LISP, though. Probably already something out there similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pixel8er Posted April 24, 2015 Author Share Posted April 24, 2015 Thanks SLW210. I did find a lisp that can reconnect the viewport to a field...but it doesn't work for this case as the field is in a table. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLW210 Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 I'll move this thread to the LISP Forum then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
