Dynamic Block "field" text moved

[TerribleTim]

Well, in the end I ended up just recreating the entire block from scratch. It seems to be fine now. I have no idea what the problem was, hopefully it doesn't come back.

I also discovered this problem when I upgraded to AutoCAD 2012. I did a quick test and I found that it worked fine in previous versions but not in 2012. My workaround to this problem was to add a fixed constraint to the attribute which worked. I reported the problem to Autodesk as well.

Sometimes bad things happen to good blocks and you have to drop back and recreate

Sometimes bad things happen to good blocks and you have to drop back and recreate

I know this is a super old thread but I think we ran into the same issue and have found the solution, not what causes the problem though.

We have title blocks with multi line text for title, project etc. On some drawings the fields were moved off to the side. We opened the block and found that although all the settings were still the same for the text the insertion point or base point of the objects for some reason has moved from being aligned on the centre grip to being aligned on the left hand side grip. Solution was to open block editor move the centre grip to where the left grip was sitting save changes and close then run the 'attsync' command. Then it was all back to normal. Bizzare issue and now sure why it occured but a relatively quick fix.
