ASSIGN/VARIABLE1=GETSETTING("Current Alignment")
However, I have a need to obtain with VB the name of the current alignment at the point in the program where the cursor is when I run a button-launched BAS script.
I just want the name as a text string so that when I automate adding Constructed 3D Lines (made from current coord sys axis) their names include the alignment name. Right now they come in with the name X_AXIS_ALIGNMENT_EDIT and I have to (ugh) manually edit them. Ain't nobody got time for that.
Nothing I try in VB works, the GETTEXT, GETCOMMAND, GETSETTING etc string handlers are not valid VB commands ha ha.
I'm thinking I do not know how to dig deep enough, that I'm missing some string functions that VB can easily grab.
Any ideas?
