Topic: associate selected scale with dimscale ?

[jlogan02]

How do I associate the appropriate dimscale to the user selected drawing scale?


(if (scl selected associate it selection with
96, 48, 24, 16, 8 , 4 where these are a list


(vla-put-property en 'scalefactor 96))) except 96 is the list ??

Code - Auto/Visual Lisp: [Select]

1.  
2.  (setq scl (dos_listbox "Scaled TitleBlock" "Choose The Appropriate Drawing Scale"
3.             '("1/8" "1/4" "1/2" "3/4" "1 1/2" "3")))
4.  
5.  (setq bdr1 (ssget "_X" '((2 . "TBLK_BORD_CTL" "TBLK_ATT_CTL"))))
6.      (command "._scale" "ALL" "" "0,0" scl "")
7.  

Also, when I try to use the drop down, see attached image, and select anything from the list I'm getting...
"[size=78%]  [/size]"
Not what I select

The (setq scl.. with fractions is not going to work. That's making it scale using the fractions. Need to change that first.

Hold please...

Update....

Removed fractions from listbox and added dimscale.
Added dimscale command with (scl as scale factor.

Still have the post HTML formatting issue. For now I'm just typing the HTML in. No matter what I select from the "Code" drop down it defaults to the HTML "size" doe.

2.             '("96" "48" "24" "16" "8" "4")))
3.  
4.  ;;(setq bdr1 (ssget "_X" '((2 . "TBLK_BORD_CTL"))))
5.      (command "._scale" "ALL" "" "0,0" scl )
6.      (command "dimscale" scl)
7.  
8.      
9.   (princ)
10. )

I cannot reproduce the error in the code tags you have.

Have you tried removing the cookie data (for theSwamp)? Honestly, I don't think that will help because I don't think there is anything "in our cookie" but it might be worth a shot.

1. Got it to work.

In my profile settings under look and layout I had selected,  "Show WYSIWYG editor on post page by default".

Unchecked it and all is back to normal.
