Title: xref paperspace items
Post by: danny on September 23, 2004, 10:45:29 PM

Is it possible to xref items from paperspace.  Whenever you xref a file, it always gives the modelspace drawing.  I have revision clouds, located on paperspace, that have information (property set definitions) on them, and I would like to xref all the drawings sheets (paperspace)into one file so that I can generate a revision schedule for the project.

Xrefing paperspace items???

currently not possible...

There is a routine here somewhere that moves all PS items into MS so you can xref them... but you would have to do a search for them.

That command is CHSPACE I believe. It allows you to select items that you want moved to modelspace and allows you to select which viewport you want to use (I guess for scaling purposes). Currently I dont know of a way to xref paperspace items either.

Danny, take some time and register you babooze!

How about something real simple like, Go to paperspace, tiled in paper

^C^Ccopy(or cut)clip;all;(setvar "tilemode" 1);_pasteclip;0,0;z;e;

This little macro will at least move EVERY THING from paper to Model for you effortlessly.
