Have You Tried: Create a Stretchable Dynamic Block

[The AutoCAD Blog]

For this month’s Have You Tried, we’re going to take you step-by-step in order to create a stretchable dynamic block. 

To start with, we’ll go over:

• Creating a block
• Making it stretchable by adding a parameter and action
• Testing and saving the block

Then we add a little more complexity by: 

• Making it stretchable from both sides
  
• Setting stretch increments for the block
  
• Setting a list of stretch values for the block

Learn more about how to create a stretchable dynamic block with step-by-step examples in the Have You Tried: Create a Stretchable Dynamic Block topic.

As a bonus, we have also made some content updates in several other articles based on your feedback.    

• Optimize Your AutoCAD Drawing Space  
• Create and Import Page Setups  
• Creating and Applying a Layer Filter
