I have a working macro that allows me to capture the username, date-time file name and all attached reference file names and stamp a plot at plot time. I would like to know if anyone has a mrco that would also capture the displayed levels in the main and ref files and allow that to get included in the stamp being placed outside of the border area. Also capture the name of the 'pentable' beig used along with plotter name. (Hint, if I'm using printer.plt - I want to actually get either the UNC (\\gdot\hp5000) name or the 'true' (i.e.HP5000) printer name, not just printer.plt driver name. Any help would be apprieciated.
Remember - Mircostation Basic - I want to share this with others and not force people to buy third party solutions to get simple plotting information. Current MDL manuals lack good examples....reflevels???
