Text Import

ArCAD-UK · 8 Oct 2013, 21:18

I'm looking for a way to import project specific text from a Word / RTF file and drag n drop individual line/paragraphs from scrapbook into my drawing as labels. I guess I'm sort of looking to import the text file and then explode the contents; any suggestions on how to achieve this?

Copy paste?

Thanks for the suggestion but I could probably type the entries faster than cut and paste.

Drag n Drop would be ideal. A long time ago I wrote a LISP program to do something similar in AutoBad, unfortunately too long ago to recover the program. I might need to review my notes production method but LO doesn't really cut it as a word processor.

Well seemed easy enough for me, but I can see your point now...
