Keep attribute properties when updating blocks

[Opie]

Yes, all within one session.
Here is a file with two instances of the block and a copy of the revised block and my copy of your code.

See the revised code for the RestoreAttColors above.

Superb! Exactly what I needed. Thanks again.

@Opie

Would that be possible to tweak your code in order to preserve attributes width factor as well as (or instead of) its color?

[Opie]

Yes. The calls to the sub-routines included in each save / restore routine would need to be modified to save and restore the ScaleFactor of each attribute.

A follow-up - this also works when using ATTSYNC.

good stuff.

[Opie]

Glad to hear this works for that situation, too.

I'm sooo glad this is still here. I suffered a disastrous HD crash.
This time I've also saved it to an external drive.

@Opie.

Four years later and I still use these routines every week.

Great stuff.
