Topic: Make object counting Posted: 30.Jul.2015 at 19:28 |
Hey folks! When I'm creating maps, I have to make coordinate countings, I always change the point names manually.... So I'm thinking if there's a more clever way to make this, to make the first coordinate point show "PP-0", the next one "P-01", "P-02", and so on.

It's called "incrementing" and there are lisp programs that do that. Try searching for one.

It is bad practice to hijack a thread started by someone else to post an unrelated question.

Are you asking about the SCRIPT command? Should be some information in your AutoCAD Help file. The hard part is actually writing the script.
