Ja, that might work  ;)

Just a small question on the topic of this thread: Why not use an aligned dimension? You could set your dimstyle to have no tick/arrow marks, then draw it with no offset from measured points. Would sort out UCS issues and allow you to stretch the "line" afterwards - updating the text.
Common sense - the curse in disguise. Because if you have it, you have to live with those that don't.

In Chrome/FireFox when I select the code in Lee's post it doesn't select the numbers to the left of each line.
I use Firefox and when I select the code the line numbers are not highlighted but yet when I copy and paste into Notepad the numbers are there.

I want to take this opportunity to thank Lee-Mac, ronjonp, irneb and GP for a helpful conversation.

Dude, seriously? This is a programming group, not a group for requesting free lisp routines. IMO, if you post here, you should be a programmer or learning to become one. Your response indicates that you're neither learned nor interested in investing any effort in learning, which is rude and insulting to the rest of the members. Lee Mac wrote a custom lisp routine to your specification for free. He probably skipped some other important activity so he could spend an hour or two to help you out. Now you can't be bothered to invest 10 minutes to read the code and do some internet research in order to learn how to use it? I think you owe Lee Mac an apology.

Though your comments in this thread appear to be unheeded, I would like to thank you for your support Owen, I do appreciate it. Perhaps I am sending the wrong message by supplying code for the program in its entirely, albeit fully commented with the intention that the OP can learn from my post, rather than blindly copy/pasting the code, which evidently appears to be the case - judging from the subsequent responses from the OP, I might have better invested the time spent annotating the code elsewhere. I think in future I shall instead provide hints to demonstrate how a task may be accomplished, or rather ask the OP to post their attempt at the problem before providing any full solution, if at all. I do enjoy programming, and like to share the programs that I write 'for fun', but maybe this generosity is sending the wrong message to the community leading to members requesting free code.

Sorry Lee Mac,
I am so sorry to everybody.

This topic helped me a lot.
I still I don't know how to create a full lisp routine, and some people is help me and give me some tips.
Finally  I improved my knowledge in this forum.

I am really sorry guys,

It's inevitable that you get a bit jaded over time, but I think the natural ebb and flow of generosity and jadedness in a vibrant community like this tends to maintain a good balance and average out over time. You want to be careful and not feed the trolls too much, but my advice to you is to not let *my* jaded view affect your approach too much. It's a bit like driving on the freeway: sudden changes are dangerous -- just stay in your groove and let the crazy guy through.

Thanks Owen, that's sound advice  :-)
