Editing Blocks


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hey, I have a block in my drawing and would like to edit one of the attributes. The block has been inserted 100+ times so it would be a pain to go to each one.

 

I also do not one to edit the block in other drawings, just this one.

 

anyone able to help?

-Insert 1 block

-Explode

-Edit

-Convert to block once more, with the same name

-Redefine (changes will reflect on other blocks)

You can also use the block attribute manager.

what do you mean by edit one of the attributes?

 

do you want to change the appearance of one of the attributes or do you want to change the value of one of the attributes?

I know you have to do it that way with 2000, but with later versions refedit or bedit are far easier.

 

Also no method is ideal as they won't create new attributes in existing blocks. You need to run battman or attsync to update all existing blocks to contain the new or modified attribute. Are they available in 2000?

refedit is available in 2000, BEDIT not yet.

Yes, they are.
