Batch block editor

[Ildan13]

Hi,

I'm looking for lsp for several things, some are existing I'm sure.

- Move a block attribute in several drawing
- Updating a block without to have to delete it, purge and reinsert (in several drawing would be perfect)
- a lisp to publish (the fonction doesnt work so well)


Thank you

Hi,

Must in need of too much codes to get the job done although your explanation of the three points are not clear at least to me.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply

Actually these are different lisp.

1/ I have a block where i have to put initials (2 letters), but some people want 3 or 4 so I would like to move the attibute in the block in batch (hundred of drawing involved..).

2/ Let say you have a block in 2 drawings, you change it in one of the drawing and want the same in the other. I have to burst the old one, then purge to be able to paste the new block. Then I have to copy paste all the bursted attribute..

I hope its clearer

Thank you

If it was me I would wblock the block to a file, make changes to the file, redefine the block using the insert command and use attsync to fix the new attribute definitions.

To redefine the block use something like this:
(command "-insert" "Block_name=Block_name.dwg" (command) )
I would put the block in the same folder as the files you are fixing so you wouldn't need the path to the new block location.

To update the attribute use something like this:
(command "attsync" "n" "Block_name" )
