SHCanada2 Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 I dont understand what you are looking for. 3E, 3H etc? 2 characters? what are the 3 character? What are the objection descriptions verbatim? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACADuser Posted December 14, 2023 Author Share Posted December 14, 2023 The 6th 7th & 8th characters from that WALL TYPE. Currently I'm using 3E as a wall type example. I may need 3E1 in the future. %wall_type% returns "Wall 3E to roof", all my wall type names in this project start with "Wall xx ......." I want the label on the wall to display in plan view as "3E" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACADuser Posted December 14, 2023 Author Share Posted December 14, 2023 Looks like this is what I was looking for. %wall_type[5..6]% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then the "[1]" selects the item from the array which starts at 0. If the formatting stays the same, this will extract the second part regardless of length.
