Steal by Lee Mac (Update block definitions)

[3dwannab]

I was wondering if there's something like LeeMacs program to steal from another drawing, only redefine the blocks.

 

Currently, this code can import the blocks into the drawing but it doesn't update the definitions.

 

(if (not steal) (load "StealV1-8"))

(Steal 
  "O:\\ACAD Blocks, Templates\\2022 Sheet Templates\\CSP_Sheet Templates.dwg"
  '(("Blocks" 
      ("AN_CSP A1 Landscape 2022" "AN_CSP A2 Landscape 2022")
    )
    ("Dimension Styles" 
      ("ANNO*")
    )
   )
)

Doesn't insert give the option to redefine a block?

@Steven P, the blocks are nested inside a drawing. I have a script to uploaded from dwg but not this. I was hoping if this steal program had this functionality.

You may have do as a multi step say steal into a blank dwg wblock out, the insert into correct dwg, Maybe just open other dwg select block and use Ctrl+c, then paste into original dwg.

 

If you need to do this a lot wblock out all the blocks into separate dwg's.

I think that's the route I will have to go down.

 

Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V doesn't redefine a block unless I'm missing something?
