Impossible to change attribute text size within dynamic block


Recommended Posts

Posted

I regularly use the attached dynamic block but have a big issue in that I cannot control the attribute text size without having to explode and then individually edit every bock.

The attribute is defined with a unique text style and was hoping to use that to control but this does not work, nor does trying to use annotative elements.

I tried making the text style annotative, the block it is part of and the dynamic block that contains the sub blocks - no luck.

Is there a solution to this?

It seems you posted this here as well... Attribute text size not changing in dynamic block - Autodesk Community

 

You need to run ATTSYNC on the block, but, how you made the block, when trying to use ATTSYNC it reports the block has NO ATTRIBUTES.

 

You added the visibility states into the block as nested Items, easy solution is to update the nested blocks with LISP.

hi again....

i see this offers a solution to update attributes within nested blocks, however my issue is that i need to change the size of the text depending on what scale i intend to show at.  I had foolishly assumed that defining a unique text style would give this control, but this doesn't work as when defining attributes a size needs to be specified.
