Add Dtext with Script
« on: February 20, 2007, 02:08:49 PM »
What's wrong with me?

How do you add a line of dtext using a script?  It just stops when it comes time to enter the text, waiting for the user to enter it.  I want the script to put it in.  I know I've done this before, but it's been YEARS!

is it waiting for the second "enter" to finish?

Nope, don't think so.  I've tried a bunch of different configurations of the "enters".

I made a few changes,
Quote
-TEXT
J
ML
0,0
0.15

and it worked.  I think the problem might be Autocads new "ON Screen editor" that can't take input from scr file.  By changing to Text command, it worked.  I also changed to 0,0 to make sure it came in at right coordinates.
