Can you use lisp to populate a field? I want to populate a field with the number of layouts in a drawing but I can't figure out how.

I was hoping I can use (length (layoutlist)) in the field expression but DIESEL doesn't handle that.

Any suggestions, Will fields ever support lisp expressions?

im not sure how to do the exact command. But I'm working on a field command for area text.

Figure out how to use field to place your info (to see if fields have that capability_. Then use lisp to retrieve your info. Put the two together.

In my command I'm getting the object id and other info and then I run the command fields > objects. Then I use autolisp to place the lisp gathered information into the field.
