Still working on it Fred, I've been a little distracted with work and other projects of late.
Your solution is fine as is Jürg's but I really want the items to be picked from paperspace without switching modes (or at least the user not seeeing it happen anyway
). The reason is I want the user (i.e. the Drafters in my office) to pick the item and place the item balloon right next to it. This 'almost' eliminates balloons being put in the wrong places.
Hmmm, just a thought, I could probably get a list of the objects from modelspace (while in pspace), put them in a list in a dialog, select the item I want to attach balloons to which highlights the object then place the balloon next to the highlighted item.
That just might work!
