Parametric Blocks

in 2D Drafting

Can anyone direct me to some form of info on how to do parametric blocks as literally none seem to reflect what I get in v25.

If I open a block in the block editor and use the 2D parametric tab, I get none of the tabs that all the videos in the past 2 years show at all.

    Hi Daniel, as I see, Operations are now moved to a separate Ribbon tab:

    And Modern interface has more options on '2D Parametric' tab.

    You are welcome ) It was mentioned in the Release notes:

    "Ribbon
    The wxWidget Ribbon foundation has been removed from BricsCAD. The Qt Ribbon (default since V24) is now the only one available. The USENEWRIBBON system variable has also been removed.
    The View and Visualize tabs in the Modern layout Ribbon have now been combine into a single tab - view. This should make finding tools easier.
    Parametric operations now have their own tab in the ribbon."

    Try CALScript, freely available from www.calscript.com. With CALScript you can create parametrically defined objects much easier than dynamic blocks. CALScript objects can be much more complex than dynamic blocks. They can even communicate to each other, allowing you to simulate complex models based on CALScript objects.

    And as a free bonus for the free program, you will receive CADCAL, a powerful replacement for GeomCAL in AutoCAD.
