AutoCAD 2010 :: Missing Attribute Data With Custom Palette?

Oct 31, 2012

This was my first go-around attempting to create a custom tool palette for our office.  Everything was fine, the palette worked well.  All of the block libraries and associated files were initially saved on my local drive.  I then moved the files and folders out on the network, repathed all the items on the palette to the new area but for whatever reason when I insert blocks that have attribute data attached It is not recognizing it anymore.  I am just trying to get this piece straightened out before I export the palette itself out to the network to share.

AutoCAD LT :: 2012 Multiline Attribute - Mtext Grips

May 2, 2012

When I select a block that contains a multiline attribute my AutoCAD does not display the corner grips of the attribute if its location is "locked" in the block.  Is there a setting I can change to show grips in 2012?  Apparently a co-worker of mine that uses 2011 has grips when selecting the block.

If I unlock the location I have grips (not the same ones I am used to seeing from mtext though) but I do not want the attribute location unlocked..I was understanding that the multiline attribute was simply an attribute containing an mtext.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Grips Missing From Images?

Jun 8, 2011

After upgrading ACA2012 to Autodesk Building Design Suite (which still includes ACA20012)

The grips on images to resize them to a rectangle for example no longer appear.

The grips still appear on other entities such as lines, circles and rectangle still appear.

Driving me potty as it still works on the systems where this upgrade hasn’t been applied yet.

It’s not drawing specific as this happens on all previous drawings opened on the upgraded machines, but not on the none upgraded.

Using the scale function to reference points at the moment as a very much longer work around, but would like it back the way it was.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Change An Attribute From A Value From Another Attribute In The Same Block

Oct 5, 2012

What I really want to do is on our fire alarm blocks we have 3 different attributes one for the address, the candela and one for misc info. I want to make an attribute that takes the number from the candela (15,30,75or 110) and change a different attribute to a value depending on which candela we use (such as 15=.078, 30=.113, 75=.195 or 110=.259). But I don't want the .078,.113,.195,.259 to print out on paper, I want to export block information excel file so I can add up all values.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Variable For Stretching With Grips?

Jun 24, 2011

know of a variable which controls how stretching with grips works.  I've got a single machine with Autodesk Architecture 2012 that when I select a grip and move it, then type a dimension in the command line, that the line becomes the dimension I typed, not the amount I moved it.  For example, If i have 10" line, select and end grip, stretch it +3 inches or -3 inches, the line becomes an absolute of 3 inches.  On all other machines, the line would either become 13" or 7".

The dynamic input is off.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Circle Quadrant Grips Rotated 45 Degrees?

May 31, 2012

Is it possible to get grip points on a circle at 45-dgree increments rather than at 90-degree increments - that is, at 45, 135, 225 & 315 degrees?  (Preferably in addition to the 90-180-270-360 grips, but temporarily instead of would work also)

I just started working with Acad 2012 on 3/26/12 and opened a drawing from 2009. When I started working on the drawing the attribute was visible. It remained visible until yesterday afternoon. When I use the block editor and open the block it shows the attributes.

My question is: How do I get the attribute to show up in my drawing again?

Apr 27, 2012

I need to create blocks in which the same text appears twice.  I've created an invisible attribute to hold the text and created two mtext object containing fields that point to the attribute value.

The text fields show the default value of my attribute but will not change when the attribute is set on an placed instance.  After setting the attribute on an instance I've tried UPDATEFIELD and REGEN but still I see the default value.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Attribute Text In A Block

Jul 23, 2013

whenever I make a block with attributed text the block works just fine when I insert it into a drawing like normal.  However if I try and open the block drawing by itself the attributed text just turns into normal text after I get this message "Orphan Attdef Objects found & Converted to Text".  This problem seems to happen on two of our machines but a third co-workers machine still works fine.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Default Attribute Values

Apr 27, 2012

Is there a way to have attributes automatically update?  For example, we often "save block as" from block editor to create a new block.  We usually have block name on defpoints layer so designers can see block name on screen. 

We now have to edit this text each time new block is created from existing block.  If default value of attribute could be the block name it would save time and errors.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Multiple Displays Of One Attribute

Aug 28, 2012

I need to make a block with one attribute named SIZE which will be filled in when the block is inserted into the drawing. On this block I would like to display the value for SIZE in 3 additional places besides the attribute SIZE.

So to make a long story short I would like to take 1 attribute and display it 4 times. If I change the attribute I would like for all 4 displays of it to update with the change.

I've tried making the 2nd, 3rd and 4th occurrences attribute with fields pointing to the value of the 1st attribute object but it is not working.  How do I go about accomplishing this.

I am trying to create a block with 1 attribute (ELEVATION) showing a finished floor level and another text (field) to show another level derived by the sum of the attribute value + and additional (fixed) number, say 100.

I have tried using fields inside an ATTRIBUTE or a simple DTEXT but the field does not update, it only picks up the DEFAULT of the attribute, not the user entered input. How can I do this?
