I have a few dynamic blocks that I have created that I need a little help with.

I have a drawer front that has standard pulls I have it set to stay centered on the drawer front as I make the drawer longer or taller. I need to know how to array the pull so when the drawer front gets to a certain length it will add another pull and centers the 2 pulls on the drawer.

it doesn't sound hard but I can't get it to work.

I will need to know the steps so I can add the changes to the drawer top view block that I have as well.

Thanks

I really like this block can you tell me how you made it. I'm not familiar with this type of block and I can see where I could use this in what I do. As to adding 2 pulls couldn't you create a 2 pull that you could select just like you did with the single pulls?

thanks for the help. For right now I created a wide drawer front with 2 handles, to space the handles I added a stretch variable that is .25 to one of the pulls and the other is set to .75 so they will stretch with the front of the drawer. I also made it so the drawer front can't be smaller then 24" it seems to be working but I was hoping to not have multiple drawer fronts to choose from. that is why I created the first dynamic block.

I don't have a lot of time to make the corrections to the drawer front so when I get a chance I will try to add the array (which I tried). When you added array, will the arrayed pulls center on the drawer front?

Thanks

I don't use AutoCAD these days so can't look at what you have got but I never found a way for conditional items. One way forward might be to have 3 handles and display either one or two using a visibility parameter.

Thanks CADnoob that will help a ton. I will dissect the drawing they had listed and make it work for me.

Thanks again
