I was wondering on the way into the office this morning what macros other people use. There are a few that I use myself, I was wondering if there are any others out there that I dont use that I probally should be.

There are alot of macros I have that I have no idea what they do... :?:

Hope everyone is doing well.....

Hello Graeme,

Steel Pro is at the top of my list.

Clouds is right up near the top, too.

3D Line Convert, AEC Modeler, Gridlock, parts of DC Sprint (Move to Layer and Capitalize), Blocker, Line 2 Wall, and Normals -- pretty much the rest of the list of macros I have used in the last month or so...

Substitute Text, Generate Offset, 3D Stairs, 3D Tools, 3D Line Convert, Clip It, Gridlock (as apart of a toolbar icon macro), Wavy, few others once in a while. Some of the names may be different here than there release name. I renamed them so they make since to me :?

I've been using SteelPro, Annotate, Clouds5, DCAD_AEC (for multiple mullion windows), I recently started using undrline and now the latest PSymColors.dmx (though I don't like that I have to pick each symbol one at a time & change each color within each symbol, one at a time) I don't see Substitute Text in my list - it sounds like one I'd like, tell me more.

FWIW, I just use the treeeline line type and draw around my clouded areas. I think that linetype is included with Datacad.

Yeah it sure is. That is the same way I create clouds.

So do I, but I usually use polylines to draw around my revisions to keep it as one entity and make it easy to edit, move, copy etc.
