Filtered Attribute Editing

Lee,

I don't know if your global attrib app handles filtering. I finished this up from a rough snippet that I've used a long time.

I allows combined filtering of the INSERTs and ATTRIButes

This is not intended for novice users. It can and will wipe out a lot of data if you misuse it. AS IS!! -David

Nice one David,

My current attrib editor only matches exact block names/tags (in multiple drawings) - and it currently can only update multiple attributes in a single block (this is not a limitation of the code used to update the attribute, but just that I haven't figured out a way to make a DCL to handle multiple tags in multiple blocks and still make it clear and easy to use).

I can see the danger in your program for those who are amateur with wildcards - but it could be very quick in the right hands

Lee,

For tag names, I used wcmatch comparisons, not ( = ). So tag1*

could be used. Again it could be very dangerous. -David
