broncos15 Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I had a quick question on creating a custom diesel expression that I would use in a field. I am trying to count the number of blocks in a drawing (my parking count) and then have a field that would update based on that. The diesel expression I am trying to use is %"prkg_cnt">% but this doesn't work. Does anyone have any suggestions? Also, is it possible to write the expression so it counts the number of blocks in a particular xref (ie. xTest|prkg_cnt)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

broncos15 Posted February 24, 2016 Author Share Posted February 24, 2016 That is a really awesome tool! Is there not any other way to do this without using that type of tool? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voaraghamanthar Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Not with standard tools provided by AutoDesk....you may get it to work on one drawing using that method...but through out a whole project, you will find it "buggy" and a hit and miss type of function.
