Signature

RetVal = GetReal([Prompt])

Object

Utility
The object or objects this method applies to.

Prompt

Variant (string); input-only; optional
The text used to prompt the user for input.

RetVal

Double
The value returned from the user.

Remarks

AutoCAD pauses for user input of a real value, and sets the return value to the value that the user enters. The Prompt parameter specifies a string that AutoCAD displays before it pauses. The prompt is optional.

If a keyword is returned instead of a double, AutoCAD will generate the error message "User input keyword." Use the GetInput method to obtain the keyword from the return value.
