When a Block is inserted, it uses the Attribute Definitions in the block table only as a template for adding Attribute subentities to the block insertion. As such, the block insertion can have more or less or even completely different attributes than the definition and it's perfectly ok in AutoCAD's' database. Join Shaun Bryant for an in-depth discussion in this video Using Scale and Rotate, part of AutoCAD 2017 Essential Training.
AutoCad 2D:: Rotate Block With Attributes - Messed Attributes Jan 23, 2012 From the attached image you can see what I'm talking about. (left=original, middle=ROTATE, right=PROPERTIES) When I rotate blocks using ROTATE command everything is fine, but when I rotate blocks using PROPERTIES my attributes get messed. I need to rotate several blocks at once with PROPERTIES, because I don't have time to rotate each one separately. The same thing happens when scaling blocks, but this was resolved using the command BSCALE in the command line. Similar Messages:. ADVERTISEMENT May 10, 2013 How 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.
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? Nov 18, 2013 I'm trying to get a dynamic block to rotate the attached attributes from a left justification in the vertical position to a center justification in the horizontal position. I managed to do this with 2 Visibility States, but anyway to do this with only the one set of attributes. I'm using AutoCAD 2012. Nov 17, 2011 I'm working on setting up a process where I can bring AutoCAD drawings into GIS.

I need to assign an attribute to a Polyline or Line so that the attributes can be viewed in GIS. I've noticed there is a way to convert AutoCAD to a SHP or SDP however I'm not familiar with this process.
Nov 18, 2011 I have this snippet that inserts a block “ExitArrow”. The block has one attribute. Is it possible to force the attribute to remain at “0” rotation regardless what angle the bock is rotated?
(defun C:ExitArrow (/ LA DS) (setq LA (getvar 'clayer')) (setq DS (getvar 'dimscale')) (C:TTEXT) (command '.insert' ' ExitArrow ' pause DS ') (setvar 'clayer' LA) (princ)) Is it possible to create blocks whose attributes remain at '0' rotation regardless the host block's rotation? Feb 14, 2013 Is there a way to create a block with attributtes that automatically complete x, y, z, lat, long for the insertion point of the block? I am trying to complete text in paperspace that will automatically fill in the lat long of a point in model space without using a table.
I have tried field insertion with reference to a cogo point, but it doesn't give options for position on a cogo point. If I pick a block with attributes, it will let me pick any attributes, and x,y position for the block. Cogo points show all the information I need to propagate in the properties.but how do I get that to translate into the text using fields or some other method?

However if I go to it in block editor and test block it allows me to change the attributes. Why does clicking the block go to block editor and not allow me to change its attributes as it does when I test block. Oct 31, 2013 I would like to change sub block from a visibility after setting it. Here an example of code to get the right visibility, I don't really know how to update a sub block by name or by handle(seems to change inside dynamic block).
