Hey ever-body,
I'm on my way out the door at the moment, so I'll catch your comments tomorrow but I want to leave a question for you all.
I've searched the swamp for most of the day and have found a lot of info I'm looking for in regards to layout tabs.
I am wondering however, how I can get a list of the current layout tabs and then automatically select the one I need.
We set our drawings up with the first & second tabs pertaining to the drawings. Any other tabs we may have in the drawing would be Addendums to the plans & details.
When working on our drawings in Model space, and we switch to Paper space, many times it goes to the last layout tab used, and many times that tab is an Addendum tab.
Also, when we send our drawings out to others, we usually clean them up and package them nicely for others to use.
I am looking for a way to automate this tedious, mundane task.
So if we have the plan tabs labeled S-01 or S-1 or S-1.1A & S-1.1B and the rest are labeled Add-1, Add-2, SCS-02, PR-07, etc., I want to, when going from model space to paper space, have a lisp routine diagnose all the tabs and automatically put S-01 or S-1.1A as the current tab.
I think I have most of the info I need to put the code together, but I don't know how to find the list of all the tabs and then filter them to get the one I want. Can you help me ??
I do appreciate your help.
