double click edit of attributes not working

[kevinj45]

Since you guys solved my first problem so easily, let's see if you can do it again. I can double click most objects, and they are editable accordingly, however, when I double click an attributed block to edit it's text, nothing happens. It is attempting to run a "AMPOWEREDIT" command. I'm also running Mechanical Desktop, so I'm sure that has something to with it.
Thanks again.

I had a similar problem.

I went to the CUI, and went to double click actions. Under Attribute block, I changed the command to ^C^Cattedit
If you like the block editor from previous autocads, it is ^C^Ceattedit.

This is all I know.

And excellent response, and it's makes perfectly good sense to me, but it still didn't work. I tried that earlier, thinking for whatever reason that it would work, but I digress.

Hmm did you search for the command ampoweredit, you might have to override it, by removing it in the command list, but to tell you the truth I have no idea what command does, as in I do not know if you need to use it or not. But if you can find the double click option that has that command in it, which I think you already did, and replace the command.

Other than that, I am outta ideas.

Issue



You want to know if there is a way to turn off the AMPOWEREDIT command, so it is not invoked when you double-click.
Solution



There is no way to change this behavior in either AutoCAD® Mechanical or Autodesk® Mechanical Desktop®.

From some testing today, I have found out that if you select the object, you can get a drop down menu if you right click, and then you can choose to edit attributes, if you cannot turn it off.
