Good Day All.
I need to regularly draw an inside contour in a rectangle that has different spacing on at least 3 of the 4 sides. Also needs to be on a separate layer.
For instance, in a 48 inch wide by 36 inch high box I need an inner contour with 8.5" bottom, 12" top, 4" left and 6" right spacing. I can do the math and work it all out but chances are that when doing 50 different ones, I will make at least one mistake. Likely 2 or 3. Since these are for parts that will be CNC cut and sent out, an error is expensive.
What are my best options for this? If it's a macro, where do I find a place that can write one for me?
Thanks in advance.
Myron said:A macro can create a rectangle according to your set size of 36 x 48 , the instructions wouldn't work for another rectangle of different dimensions.
I am thinking of a VBA form with textboxes for entering the top, bottom, left, and right inset distances, and a commandbutton for "create inset rectangle".
Select the target rectangle or rectangles, then click the button.
