I have a challenge for you good people.
My office is (until recently) exclusively Autocad R14. That means no Visual Lisp!
(I know, you can laugh, It's okay
)
We intend to transfer to Bricscad Pro.
(I want immediately, my bosses would drag it out over years
)
So, at least for a while, we'll have both.
Files would be saveas R14, that works okay.
But I would like to start using multiple layouts.
Autocad R14 and vanilla lisp can access and manipulate dictionaries,
and layouts live in dictionaries someplace.
So I could likely work out a lisp, that when the R14 user switches to paperspace,
a prompt asks the user which layout, and sets the "active" layout accordingly before switching.
I don't like to reinvent the wheel, does something like this already exist?
or a lisp fragment showing how to change the "active" layout without visual lisp?
I'm aware that this is from the stone age, sorry
