CAD Diesel Expressions Guide

This document provides several RTEXT expressions coded by JJ Purugganan to display information like the username, date, file details, and xrefs in AutoCAD drawings. The expressions can be used "as needed" and include variables for things like the username, drawing name, layout, date, and xrefs. The full code includes 4 different RTEXT expressions with variations on displaying things like the file creation/update dates and times, plotting date, username, and xref file names.

These RTEXT Diesel expressions work for me, explore and use as needed:
Plotted by: $(upper,$(getvar,"loginname"))
And if you'd like the full plot stamp I use:
Drawing: $(upper,$(getvar,"dwgprefix")$(getvar,"dwgname"))
Layout Tab: $(upper,$(getvar,"ctab"))
Xrefs: $(upper,$(xrefs , ,))
Images: $(upper,$(images , ,))
Date: $(edtime,$(getvar,date),MO/DD/YYYY)
Time: $(edtime,$(getvar,date),HH:MM:SS AM/PM)
Plotted by: $(upper,$(getvar,"loginname"))
File Created: $(edtime,$(getvar,tdcreate),DDD", "D MON YYYY)
File Last Updated: $(edtime,$(getvar,tdupdate),DDD", "D MON YYYY)
Today's Date: $(edtime,$(getvar,date),DDD", "D MON YYYY)
