    Cool Unable to save edited Attribute Text

    A particular attribute of an inserted block (title block) reverts back to default text (ie.###) every time I save the drawing after editing it.
    I can find no difference in the settings of the attribute compared to the others in the same block.
    Does anyone know the cause of this happening?

    You fail to mention what field expression you are using.

    Sort of like asking the auto mechanic on the phone what wrong with the car because it is making a funny noise, and you don't even mention what the noise sounds like.

    Which version of AutoCAD was this created with? Does it use Multi-Line Attributes? I have seen this with Fields that reference Sheet Set Placeholder text.
    If you have a technical question, please find the appropriate forum and ask it there.
    You will get a quicker response from your fellow AUGI members than if you sent it to me via a PM or email.
