Thank you very much for your big help and effort!!! I feel sorry to say, that it seems to me, that this level of programming is out of my scope. Maybe it can help someone else to really takle the problem.

Hello! I know how to add custom properties with e.g. entity.setCustomProperty("QCAD","Prefix","") to an entity. I would like now to limit the input to a list selection and cread a drop down list e.g. "left", "right", "bottom", "top". I found in the api list the following command but it did not find ...

Hey! me again! I ran in somehow the same issue with dimensions. They change their properties but do not update directly after the script. var appWin = EAction.getMainWindow(); var di = this.getDocumentInterface(); var doc = this.getDocument(); var op = new RModifyObjectsOperation(); appWin.handleUse...

Hello CVH!

Everything works like charm now. Thanks. I will try to find out more about the listener later on.!!

Thanks a lot!!!

Additional Question: Is there maybe a possibility to run a script everytime, when a blockreference is moved to update it after it has changed its place?

That would be a dream come true

Hello CVH! Thanks for the many points to improve the script (and sorry for late reply, a lot to do the last days). For time reasons i will leave it here, as its is. Like i mentioned i am really low level programmer and for me, the aim is, that it works for me, and not for genereal cases. Nevertheles...

Thank for the hint with the missing i in the first line and the review. The rest is also a mistery how it works, but it works, but it seems, that the ".name()" converts the RColor to hex, and that can be used to set the color of the new layer. So it also works with custom colors, because it actually...

Hello! The scirpts copies all sublayers from "oldlayer_name" to a new created "newlayer_name". If somebody needs that some day: include("scripts/simple.js"); //für addsimpletext // get main application window: var appWin = EAction.getMainWindow(); // appWin.handleUserMessage("Neubau mit Farbe hinter...

How the hack!!! Thanks @Andrew. Maybe i was in a code blurry. Tried out so many things, nothings seemed to work. Thanks for the hint. @CVH: The wohle reason is, i am developing tools to create PID schemes in a comfortable way. We are working often with existing structures and implement new parts. So...

Hello! I want to highlight some object on a layer, with another layer pushed in the background. I try now to make a clone form all entities and move them to layer one. Unfourtunatly this only works for polylines until now. I am not able to use "castToShap" for RTextEntities or block. Maybe someone h...
