    Default Attributes

    My company's border is a block with all attributes. We are also using Sheet set manager with custom fields.

    I am trying to create a new attribute and then insert the new custom field from the sheet set.

    I am starting by creating the attribute inside the block.

    When I close the block with changes saved the attribute is not showing up.

    Why not?

    Maybe run the "Attsync" command on the block? (should show the new attribute.

    That resolves that. One more follow up question now though. All the other attributes with fields have a grip edit outside the block.

    How can I get that done?

    P.S. Thanks for the first answer.

    You're welcome, glad to help...

    I'm not sure I understand your second question, are you talking about Multiline Attribute where when you go to edit it you get a MTEXT looking edit?

    Re. grips: perhaps the attribute definition has the position locked. uncheck that property; might result in the same type of grips
