sketch11 Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 I have a pull down menu which is created from an MNU file and loaded via a script file. Each menu item inserts drawing objects from a particular source drawing file. The drawing objects contain block/s within. The issue: When I change the block in the new drawing, it seems to carry over into the source drawing. Is there a way to definitively break the relationship between blocks?

BIGAL Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 If I understand correctly your new insert contains nested blocks, so insert at 0,0 1 1 0 then explode, it should then release all the nested blocks and the original block can be purged.

sketch11 Posted November 28, 2019 Author Share Posted November 28, 2019 @BIGAL, yes I was aware of this. I was wondering is there was a setting or command which made this possible without exploding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sketch11 Posted December 12, 2019 Author Share Posted December 12, 2019 I don't think the above add-on was suitable. Is there a way to change the name of the nested blocks by other means? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
