Attributes, like geometry, can be added to a block when it is initially created with the BLOCK command or later when being edited in the Block Editor (BEDIT command). Open a new drawing, draw a rectangular object that is 30”x72” to represent a conference table. Note: The Invisible mode suppresses the visibility of the attribute on-screen and keeps the drawing from looking too crowded, while still providing the benefits of being able to add information to a block. The visibility of hidden attributes can be toggled with the ATTDISP command. Enter BLOCK at the command prompt. In the Block Definition dialog box, specify the values shown in the following image:. Accept the values provided and specify the center of the table as the base point for the block.

Autolisp Insert Block

Note: The prompt order for attribute values is determined by the order in which attributes were selected while defining a block; this order can be important when creating scripts or AutoLISP programs. The BATTMAN command can be used to change the prompt order of attributes in a block. In the Edit Attributes dialog box, accept the default values. Chairs are commonly found in a conference room, so create a block named CH1 that represents a chair and add the same two attributes that you defined for the conference table in the steps 5-7.

Assign the Default values of CH1 and CONFERENCE CHAIR W/O ARMS for the FURNLBL and FURNDESC attributes in the chair block, respectively. Eddie izzard stand up.

I'm trying to hack (from some code that Lee and others have posted here) together a LISP that will insert a block of a door from a list. The door blocks need to have door numbers assigned to an attribute.

In the list, I already have the block name and the door number. Inserts a block, and assigns 'GLEN' as the first attribute value.IF.

I understand you correctly, there is more than one attribute for the block inserted, thus you're getting incorrect attribute values. Again.IF. that statement is true, then IMO - this line of code is where you should start.If you want to terminate the attribute entries after adding 'GLEN', then try adding a ' after 'GLEN', like so:(command 'color=red./color-insert' entity ipt xScale yScale rot 'GLEN' color=red'/color).
