Title: Block Manager
Post by: Matt W on July 09, 2007, 11:39:37 AM
WOO HOO!!! First one in the pool!!

This is based on a program by jbuzbee (http://www.theswamp.org/index.php?topic=16730.msg203685#msg203685) with some search functionality from here (http://www.theswamp.org/index.php?topic=3375.0).

Looks great, but why is a hot water unit in the Structural, wood truss library.? :)

The detail you see in the image is the selected detail from the search results.  I'm still toying with some things...such as clearing the listbox on the left when a search is executed just to eliminate any confusion as to where a detail is.

Thank YOU for the drawing/block code.  That's a sweet idea having a "host" drawing that contains the details.  This will make updating text styles, layers, etc... SOOOO much easier (if I ever have to do it again).

How are you doing the search?
Does it search file names, search inside the files DWG properties, or do you have a text file with a bunch of descriptions linked to a file name?

Sorry the server was getting too full & we couldn't upload any new attachments, so I had to clear some space. You can upload it again & I'll try to add some more room.

Matt, Barry:

Any chance to get the attachment back? Now that I'm digging OpenDCL, would like to see more examples. Thanks.
