Adding a List of Predefined Options

Earlier, you saw how you can add an increment value set to make a dynamic block stay in a set range of sizes. You can also set up a dynamic block to offer a range of sizes in a pop-up list. To do this, you need to employ the Block Table feature.

In the following exercise, you’ll add a selectable list to the Door block to allow the door size to be selected from a list. Start by adding the block table that will allow you to set up a set of predefined door dimensions:

1. Double-click the door to open the Edit Block Definition dialog box and then click OK.

2. In the Block Editor tab’s Dimensional panel, click the Block Table tool.

3. At the Specify parameter location or [Palette]: prompt, place the Block Table in the location shown in Figure 18-16.
