AutoCAD Dynamic Blocks :: Multiple Attributes Mixed With Text In A Single Line
Jun 25, 2013What do I need: In the example I will mark attributes with underlined text, and simple text with bold text
(Position)numberDiamdiam
Diam= diameter symbol
In the model space, I enter values:
Position = 3
number = 15
diam = 12
I need to get:
(3)15Diam12
instead of
(3 )15 Diam12
Is it possible to make an Attribute, take as a "Position X" value, the "Text alignment X" from a text ?
AutoCAD 2013 :: Change Multiple Lines Attribute To Single Line Attributes?
Jun 27, 2013I have a block which includes some Multiple lines attributes.
Now I don't want them to be multiple lines any more.
How can I change them to single line attribute?
In the block editor, the "Multiple lines" in the properties palette is gray out. I have create single line attribute and replace the multiple line attributes one by one.
Why don't make the Multiple lines property editable? This problem is since Multiple line attribute first time introduced.
Interesting thing is single line attributes can easily changed to multiple line attributes through the properties palette!
AutoCAD 2010 :: Single Attributes In Multiple Text?
Feb 22, 2012In my title block I have a attribute with the name project_Number. Now what I want to do is the following. When I edit my block with the project number. The project number should automatically be added to a text box without me typing in the project number twice.
E.g.. This Drawing is part of the consulting services provided for Project[Project_Number] and may not be used or applied for any other purpose without prior consultation.
in other word the project number should be reference in the text box from the attribute.

Aug 3, 2012Why do most of the VB.Net examples, define and assign a variable in a single line as it is being used in the program.
In VBA I found it easier to read the code with the variables defined at the top of the function or subroutine.
What do most of you do when defining variables ?
I find the VB.net lines below more difficult to read ..............

AutoCAD 2010 :: Can't Convert Multi Line Attributes To Single Line
Jan 22, 2010We are creating a new company title block for the use in Inventor 2010 and AutoCAd 2010. It has initially been generated in Inventor and exported to AutoCAD. My problem is that all attributes that came over are now setup as multiline attributes and I can't seem to change them to single line. Therefore you have to open the multiline editor separately for every single item to make changes in lieu of just 'tabbing' through the values in the Enhanced Attribute Editor. This adds time and frustration and seems to be intolerable for some of my colleagues.
Is there a way to change the attributes to a single line in AutoCAD I'm just not aware of? I tried to find different settings for the export from Inventor but the options seem to be very limited.
I could probably go over this and create separate AutoCad only titleblock and border but that would kind of defeat the purpose.
AutoCAD .NET :: Multiline Attributes Revert To Single Line
Nov 12, 2013I am experiencing this issue every now and then and I don't know why or how it happens. No modifications to the BlockDefinitions or any BlockReferences are made and for some magic all multiline attributes in the drawing file revert to single line. After that happens the only way I know to fix them is to go through all definitions in the Block Attribute Manager and make every attribute multiline again. This is very annoying because I don't know how it happens so it can be prevented and because it takes time to fix them again. AutoCAD 2012 (Mechanical) on Windows 7 32 and 64 bits.

View 0 Replies View RelatedAutoCad :: Multiple Blocks With Editable Attributes In One Dynamic Block?
Oct 16, 2012I have a group of blocks, when I click the blocks I get the editable attribute pop-up box. I can now enter a text of my liking.
I have now made a dynamic block of these blocks, with a visibility states dropdown. So that only one block is shown at a time and when I need to change it I copy the block and use the dropdown button to select the one I need.
The problem I have is that the when I click the blocks from the dropdown only one of them allows me to use the editable attribute pop up window. The others say 'The selected block has no editable attributes'.
If I can't have multiple blocks with editable attributes in one dynamic block or if I can and have done something wrong.
I've attached the block so you can see what I mean. Single Socket allows editable attributes others wont.
AutoCad :: Change Width Factor On Multiple Block Attributes
Sep 8, 2009I have a number of attributed dynamic blocks with multi vis states, that I wish to change from attribute text width factor 1, to 0.85, as per client specified requirement for the particular project. There are quite a number of different named blocks on each sheet, copies of each block, and quite a number of sheets involved.
Using BATTMAN or EATTEDIT I cannot select all attributes and change width factor in one go. It can only be done one at a time, a laborious task at best. GATTE appears not to be able to change width factor.
Any method of selecting all attributed blocks in a sheet, then changing the attribute text width factor on all to 0.85 in one fell swoop?
AutoCad 2D :: Difference Between Multiple And Single Line?
Feb 12, 2013except for the quantity of the line . the case is I was taught to make a title block tempelate. For each single item, like text"STUDENTS NAME " or "PART NMAE" , and inluding the attributes, I was instructed to use single line text instead of mutliple line. I was told that single line won't change. What does it mean it won't change?
I feel that single line is more precisely controlled ,while the multiple line text is more ofen used in puting the notes in a drawing. But in what case use what I am confuesd. Especailly when make the tible block, It seems to use the single line text is the unique way to make each feature in its status.
AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Working With Multiple Attributes Within Block?
Aug 8, 2012I know how to retrieve the entity information from the block, but can't figure out how to write the loop statement to loop, look for first attribute, assign to a variable, goto next attribute, assign to different variable, etc., etc...
In my research, most programs I've seen it execute the loop, assign to a variable, then print/put that data somewhere, loop again and utilize the same variable to print/put the next data somewhere.
I would like each attribute within a block to be assigned a separate variable.
AutoCad 2D :: Convert Single Line Text To Multi-line

May 10, 2013How I rotate a block but set the text to stay readable.
At the moment I have a 600x600 light fitting with a Tag inside for typing the letter of the fitting. E.G. Type A, B, C
I have a rotate function also so I can rotate the fitting to the orientation of the room.
But when I rotate the fitting the text rotates also, therefore if I turn the fitting round 90 degrees the text is on its side. How do I rotate the block but leave the text orientation the correct way?

Oct 31, 2012How can I add single line text to my CAD drawing? I use DTEXT command, but there is no option to enter text height. CAD only asks me the rotation angle of text and then blinking cursor appears. If I type something, text gets so small it's almost invisible. Only option for me now is to scale but it takes too much time and too many clicks to get my text to wanted size. Why AutoCAD doesn't ask me for the height?
View 9 Replies View RelatedAutoCad :: Display ATTRIBUTES As Text From Multiple Blocks
Feb 13, 2011I have a CAD file with property parcels in it. It has come from an external contractor and from a GIS program of sort sort I believe.
If you click each 'boundary'/land piece, it is a block/object (not a proxy graphic) and in the properties pane window, there are attributes that has the lot number, the lot area, parcel number, other info etc in it.
Each block is irregular and different, i.e. they are not all the same rectangle block repopulated, they are different blocks.
I don't know much about attributes in AutoCad althoguh after reading about them, is there some way to edit an attribute (make it not 'invisible' and to increase the text size of its display) when it is already in several hundred different blocks? The only way I could work out how to do it was to go into every block and do it.
I also tried using the ATTSYNC command to update blocks with attributes although that requires me to individually select each block/give each blocks name.
I also tried using the DATA EXTRACTION wizard and was able to extract the attributes into a table/excel file, although that is not really good enough as I need the attributes displayed over the CAD data so you can see what parcel of land the attributes are referring to.
Any better way or a lisp command to do this? Clicking each block/boundary/land unit to place a label over it would also be okay. I just don't want to have to manually create the labels from reading the property pane, there must surely be a better way,
AutoCAD .NET :: Explode Block With Attributes / Converting Attribute To Text?
Feb 7, 2012I wrote this little piece of code (attached) that explode all the blocks in the current drawing.This is magical, compared with what we had to do in VBA.
This works perfectly but now I want to go deeper and managed blockreferences with attributes.Based on my code, I can determine if oBTR.HasAttributeDefinitions is true or false.
If the blockreference has attributes, I suppose I will have to use Explode instead of ExplodeToOwnerSpace.
My first question is, using explode, I need before to know in which space the blockreference is inserted (Model or any layout) so to insert the exploded entities correctly. So, is it possible from a blockreference to get its own SpaceId?
An another idea I had is to edit the blockreference (not the block definition) to replace attributes with text...
