Tip 2233: Add Bullets to Text
Add Bullets to Text is a cool utility from Ramakrishna Acharya. After drawing text objects, load the LISP code and type Bullet at the AutoCAD Command prompt. Select the text where you want to add bullets and then select the type of bullet you want to add: arrows, circles, donuts, lines, or squares. The bullets are created to the scale of the selected text objects. The bullet objects created by the function are regular AutoCAD objects and aren't attached to the text. Thus if you make a mistake, it's easy to correct and the original text is never compromised. This elegantly programmed solution shows how easy it is to make your own smart drafting tools. Nice job -- a tip of the hat from Harry for a well-written program.
