Does anyone have experience with Attributes? I have a drawing with a few thousand attributes. I want to scale the attribute globally like editing a block. Does anyone know what command or tool I can used to achieve that? I hate to do it manually one by one. Please feel free to guesstimate a solution. Thanks

Have you tried BATTMAN?
For more info on this command, check it out in the help portion of CAD.
In rereading your post, did you mean you were editing it and wanted those scaled edits to be applied globally or were you scaling the blocking which contain the attributes?
If you were doing the second, than try using QSELECT to select all the attributes and scale them. If they are all the same scale to start than this should be easy to do by changing thier scale in the properties window.

Thanks for the post... I have tried both "F1' and tried editing the block and attribute. The dynamic block changes, but the attribute stays the same. Trying to change the attribute only allows me to do it line by line, it will take me 20 to 30 hours to do them. I will try QSELECT, but that will shift my insertions points. I will keep trying, but if anyone else has any more tips, please feel free to share your comments, thanks

Are the attributes in single block reference(different attributes) or they are in different block references? If they are in different block references, does the block references have the same name? I mean, are they typical block references with different attribute values? Whatever be the condition, it can be done automatically.

After you scale the block, run ATTSYNC at the command line. Then choose one of the blocks that needs it's attribute scale updated. By selecting one, all instances of that block will be updated.
