mapkey

Hello all


Can someone give me an example ofsetting up a mapkey. I would like to make a mapkey for example to change the color of text in a drawing, notes, dimensions,etc to blue. Using the keys ttb. Name it: turn text blue. I need to know what to enter to get it to work. Thanks.

in drawing select a dim..object>action


then start recording yoyr mapkey...you might want to add the mapkey icon to your toolbars beforehand


go thru the name etc .. then record


then right click on the graphics screen and select Properties>text style>color


choose your color and ok...preview if you like..or okay the base popup


then stop your mapkey..okay....save that one key under ..like ttb.pro


and it later to your config....once you make sure it's to your liking...


or;


mapkey ttb ~ Timer `UI Desktop` `UI Desktop` `popupMenuRMBTimerCB`;\
mapkey(continued) ~ Close `rmb_popup` `PopupMenu`;\
mapkey(continued) ~ Activate `rmb_popup` `DwgPopupEditProperties`;\
mapkey(continued) ~ Select `mod_dim_asynch` `tab_main`1 `lay_style`;\
mapkey(continued) ~ Activate `mod_dim_asynch` `psh_color`;\
mapkey(continued) ~ Activate `tscoldial` `udf_color_CB.udf26`1 ;~ Activate `tscoldial` `Ok`;\
mapkey(continued) ~ Activate `mod_dim_asynch` `psh_apply`;~ Activate `mod_dim_asynch` `psh_ok`;

Wow.


Thought it might be a long affair.


Thanks wsylvester. Will give it a go.

I got it to work fairly well. Each timeI open a drawing and try to change the text I have to go the the properties and then close it. After that it seems to work.


What is your first line referring to: dim..object>action?

I'd likeknow too...

Oldman,


Object>Action.... select the object then take action...pick order more or less.


I'm not sure maybe I didn't record it right, I thought it worked....build?version?


but you get the general idea,you go through what your want to do... then record...


I save to a seperate file first, not config.pro .....add laterin notepad if I use it enough.
