invisible visible attributes

how come the attributes of inviseble visibility states are visible after the explosion with the command BURST

Because you BURST them.

 

BURST-Explodes blocks, converting attribute values to text objects.

There is another possibility reaching attibutes remain invisible

With all of those visibility states, I do not have time to go through them all.

But, like I stated...

BURST-Explodes blocks, converting attribute values to text objects.

 

You should be able to find a LISP to remove all invisible attributes prior to bursting. I saw you posted this on Autodesk forum, maybe someone there will find you a LISP.

 

Why are you trying to BURST this block?

[frans1954]

If the block about 30 times is used, the size of the file, after the explosion of these blocks is smaller than approximately 3 times without exploding. The file containing the exploded blocks is also noticeably faster.

You should not forget that those hidden attributes may be there for a reason (i.e. to be extracted by/to a third-part tool) therefore removing them may cause you troubles later.

 

Regarding BURST command behaviour, I think this is quite logical – it convert the attributes to text entities and since this entity doesn’t support invisibility state (except by layer, of course) will be user’s decision to remove those from drawing.
