Hello,

I've recently started using the action recorder in AutoCAD, i'm using 2014. I'm trying to automate my revision process and im trying to record the following sequence:

delete X
Paste X
next layout


It works up until i change to the next layout which it doesn't seem to allow. does anybody know of a way that i can record changing to the next layout?



-------------
Many Thanks

Thats exactly what i was looking for, thank you. is there anyway to make it automatically run through all layouts then stop at the end? not sure if i should start a new thread or not to ask, i'm new to forums

Many Thanks

I don't know if that is possible without resorting to creating a custom lisp routine.

hmm i have a lisp that does that already (zooms extents on all layouts) but cant read it well enough to figure out how its done. Thanks anyway, at least i can speed up my process a little ☺

But it doesn't cycle through the layouts as you make revisions.
