Can I modify a block and reinsert the modified block, keeping the attribute values of the originaly inserted block.

The attributes are the same in both the new and original block, however the new block has an additional attribute and I do not want to go through changing all the attributes of the block back.

I guess ATTOUT and ATTIN would work but hope that there is a simpler option?

Hi

Give ._BattMan (Don't forget the "Sync" button)

OR

._EAttEdit (Don't forget the ._AttSync command)

ago, the (Don't...) are optional you may need to read up on them so that you can decide if you do need to use them or not.

OR

._AttReDef (CommandLine and will have to Explode Block)

Have a good one, Mike

If the block you redefined is in a seperate drawing, you can just reinsert the block using the block insert command. A dialogue will pop up saying the block already exists and asking you if you want to redefine it. Answer "Yes". You might then need to use the attsync command.
