Autotext Object

Hi,

I am just wondering if there is an object that can reference a layout name (or any autotext for that matter) but only show the first character of that layout name? For example, if the layout name was ‘Ground Floor Plan’, the text object would only display the ‘G’? Thanks in advance

Kind Regards,
Michael

No unfortunately GDL objects can read and use autotext values (as a whole) but they can't actually extract any information from them as you wish.
