    Question Change visibility setting of Dynamic Block inserted into a cell of a Table

    When I insert a dynamic block into a table cell, AutoCAD does not allow me to change the visibility setting in the block. Is there a way to do this?

    Still not able to do this. This is a real annoyance for me.

    Rant over.

    A workaround that I’ve discovered for the inability to change visibility states of a dynamic block in a table cell is to insert the block in the drawing, change the visibility to the way you want it. Then, copy and paste as a block. Get the name assigned name of the pasted block (eg A$C0861780C). Use this name to insert the block into the table cell.
    I just checked 2016 to see if it was changed. It hasn't so the workaround still applies.

    Cheers
