1 2 3... Counting Blocks with Count command in AutoCAD R14*Applies to: AutoCAD R14*So we draw up our drawing and place lots of blocks in the drawing also
and then go home for the day. Well if it was always that simple.
Have you ever needed to find out how many blocks you have in your
drawing. I know I have on a couple occasions and the
AutoCAD count command has helped make the job easier. The Count
command in AutoCAD generates a list of block names and their quantities
right to the Text Window. This can help save time when trying to
generate a cost proposal for a job that you might be bidding on.
You can also copy the information in the Text Window to a word
processor outside of AutoCAD if you need to. To use the Count
command follow the command sequence below.
