How to get the Grid-Reference of a dimension? I tried to read a dimension by CREOSON

 

c.dimension_list_detail(name='D14')

 

and the response is :

[{'dwg_dim': False,
 'dim_type': 'linear',
 'name': 'd14',
 'sheet': 0,
 'value': 30.0,
 'encoded': False,
 'text': ['{0:@D}\n']}]

 No grid-reference info. So what's the correct way?

Hi,

please explain the term “Grid Reference”.

We can see that A3 is the grid-reference of the dimension. How to get this information programmatically  through CREOSON ?

Hi,

so you have grid defined in your format file, do you ?

I hope @DavidBigelow knows an answer.
