  • what will happen to ATT if you explode block?

  • what will happen to ATT if you explode block?

  • I had a block definition that i've inserted into my drawing multiple times.I added an editable attribute to the block definition, but when I did so, the blocks that were inserted previously did not update with the editable attribute attached.... It appears that the editable attribute will only be assigned to blocks which are inserted after the attribute is assigned... is this true?

  • awsome thank you

  • Thanks very much, clear and fast way to show Autocad work simplification ! Just what I was looking for :)

  • very informative way. thanks very much

  • just to ask..how can i edit 10 drawing in 1 open drawing and all these 10 are automatically change? can anybody tell to me now!? tnx..

  • Nice job... very helpful. I just want to encourage users to check out the the Modes listed on the left of the ATTRIBUTE creation form. Also, good point about selecting the Attributes in the order you want them prompted in... BATTMAN (bap... pow) will allow you to redefine this order at any time. BATTMAN, ATTEDIT, EATTEDIT, ATTDISP, ATTSYNC and BURST are related commands to working with Attributes. Thanks again and keep up the good work!

  • Make sure the Attribute doesn't have "Invisible" checked. Also, set ATTDISP to "On" or "Normal" (preferred). Don't forget the power of FIELDs!!!

  • I believe you could accomplish this by a slightly complex conversion of your attributed block to a Dynamic Block. Other than that, I'm sure you could do it programmatically, possibly even with a LISP routine. I'm guessing you want to filter (FILTER seemingly won't accomplish this either) the block, not just by the existence of a TAG, but by it's VALUE??? You might search the Autodesk Discussion Groups... I couldn't quickly find the answer, but perhaps you can!
