    I'm not sure what you mean by "didn't work," please explain. Also; it's highly recommended that each attribute have a unique name; having multiple attributes in one block with the same name (tag) usually causes problems.

    @StDoodle:
    the "didn't work" that he's talking about is that no matter what Visibility Options he chooses, all Attributes are showing (that is what i discover wheni tested his attached Dyna Block)

    @BILLYJOW :
    Is this the one i did before?
    or something similar to this?

    try this one :

    i think it should work as to how you want it to be.

    Hey guys. Sorry for my poor english. Maybe the attached file could explain better what I'm trying to say.

    Yes, I'm trying to make it better.

    i think it should work as to how you want it to be.
    @nod684
    It was exactly I was trying to do, man.

    Thank you very much!
    You always helping me out. I'm really appreciate that.

    Could you explain how did you do that, please??
    Because I wasted a lot of time trying to do that, without much success.

    Best Regards

    Huh, weird, didn't appear that way for me in 2012; had to save as an actual block in the file, but after doing so the visibility states correctly toggled which attributes showed in the attribute editor... weird. I'm on 2012 currently, you guys?

    you are welcome

    well its really simple

    i suspect you did the drawing and put in your attributes then make it a block
    then you edited the block and make it dynamic..

    the attribs shows up even with the visibility states are off

    so i redo your thing and take out the attribs
    edit the block and put the attribs while inside the block editor and that's it!

    I am using 2012

    @ nod684
    I had to change the attribute definition (tags, prompt)and the block is not work properly.
    As I said before, the block has not finished. It's in developing states yet, and there are some thing to improve.

    By the way.
    Could you explain to me how Can I put other visibility state in my block?
    Because I need the other block like that but without "X" in the middle of the circle.

    Thanks in advance

    I looked into your attachment, maybe because you have the attributes name all the same (SUP/SUP, ESQ/ESQ, DIR/DIR...etc)

    try giving each of these attributes a unique name.

    EDIT :

    I have renamed the TAGS and PROMPTS according to your attached.
    please see revised block
