XANADU NumTable generator - automatic table numbering ----------------------------------------------------- (C) 2005-2008 XANADU a.s., www.xanadu.cz NumTable generates an automatic array of incremented numbers which can be manipulated together as a table and are dynamically recalculated on any change. Setup: NumTable.VLX must be loaded in the AutoCAD 2006 (or higher) session (older versions are not supported as NumTable uses calculated table cells). You can load it automatically using ACAD.LSP/ACADDOC.LSP or with the _APPLOAD command. Usage: Start the NumTable command. - Pick the upper left (start) point of the number array. - Pick the lower bottom corner of the number array. For two-dimensional arrays, this point is used for the calculation of cell size. For 1-dimensional arrays only the respective size is used, the smaller size is set from the text height. - Specify the Starting number (you can change it after the table is generated), the default is 1. - Specify the Step (increment), the default is +1. You can enter even an expression - e.g.: +2, -1, *2, *3/4+2+sin(20) - Enter the number of columns, the default is 10. - Enter the number of rows, the default is 1. - Enter the text size, the default is 2 * DIMSCALE value. NumTable generates the specified array of incrementing numbers - e.g.: 100 101 102 103 104 - or - 20 22 24 26 28 30 - or - 10 9 8 7 - or - 1 2 4 8 16 32 64 128 256 After the table is created you can edit the array (spacing, position) as a normal AutoCAD table. You can change the starting number (seed) and the number sequence is recalculated automatically. You can even replace any calculated number (cell) with a fixed number - and the rest of the sequence is recalculated. So you can make e.g.: 100 150 200 250 300 800 850 950 1000 NumTable creates and uses its own table style definition ("_NUMTABLE"). If you want to use your own table style, make it current, suppress its header and title and set the "UseCurrentTabStyle" key in Registry (see below) to "T". All NumTable settings are saved between sessions - they are stored in the Windows Registry, under: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Autodesk\AutoCAD\Rxx.x\ACAD-xxx:xxx\Applications\NumTable (see XANADU's web server for NumTable updates) ------------------------------- XANADU a.s. www.xanadu.cz www.cadforum.cz info@xanadu.cz
