Attedit command in AutoCAD
Attedit command in AutoCAD
At the Command prompt, modify a block's attribute
data. You may filter the properties that need to be changed based on the
attribute tag, the current value, or the selected item.
Be sure to adhere to these rules when setting a filter:
· To limit what may be modified, type the precise name of a block,
attribute tag, or attribute value. Since attribute values and tags are case-sensitive,
capitalize the correct words.
· If you do not wish to filter on a certain block, tag, or value, press
Enter to accept the asterisk (*).
· To select and modify empty attribute values, type a backslash (/).
The following questions are shown.
Edit each attribute separately?
Indicates whether modifications are made locally
or globally.
Yes. edits each property individually. The
attributes must be clear and in line with the existing UCS. With this
technique, you may alter the text string as well as attributes like height and
color.
No. modifies a lot of characteristics at once,
no. When altering attributes globally, you can only swap out one text string
(or attribute value) for another.
Attribute prompts for both individual and
global changes
When editing is being done both individually and
globally, the following prompts are shown.
Specification of the block name
Type the name of the block containing the
attribute you wish to change in the text box. You can modify the attributes of
any block insertion by pressing Enter without specifying a block.
Specifying an attribute tag
Please enter the attribute tag you wish to
modify. Any tag's attributes can be changed if the Enter key is pressed without
providing a tag name.
Case matters for attribute values.
Specification of attribute values
Change the attribute value by entering it. Any
value can be changed if the attribute value is not specified before pressing
Enter.
Case matters for attribute values.
Certain qualities
1.
To modify an attribute, locate the block
insertion in the drawing area and click it.
2.
The selection set's initial attribute is
denoted by an X. You can modify any of the characteristics of the attribute you
choose if you choose Yes to edit attributes one at a time.
3.
Until you go on to the subsequent
attribute, the X stays on the current attribute.
4.
Changing Individual Attributes Prompts
5.
Only if you select Yes to change each
characteristic individually will the following prompts appear.
Value: changes or
modifies the value of an attribute.
· Changes the text you input for the attribute value. When you don't
want to replace the complete string, use this technique.
The? and * letters
are read literally rather than as wild-card symbols.
· Replace. Replaces the whole attribute value with a new value.
If you press Enter,
the attribute value will be empty (null).
Position
Changes the text insertion point.
If the attribute is aligned,
ATTEDIT prompts for both ends of a new text baseline.
Height
Changes the text height.
When you specify a point, the
height becomes the distance between the specified point and the start point of
the text.
Angle
Changes the rotation angle.
If you specify a point, the text is
rotated along an imaginary line between the specified point and the start point
of the text.
Style
modifies the style preference.
Layer
changes the layer.
Color
changes the color.
A genuine color, a color from a color book, or a
color from the AutoCAD Color Index can all be entered.
· Byblock or Bylayer. specifies that the layer or block's default
parameters are used to determine the color. At the prompt, enter bylayer or
byblock.
· actual color. Indicates
the actual color that will be used to decorate the object of choice.
· Using a loaded color book, a coloring
book chooses a color for the selected object. If you enter a color book, such
as PANTONE, you are encouraged to provide the color name, such as 573.
Next
The next characteristic in the option set is then
selected. -ATTEDIT comes to a conclusion if there are no more attributes.
Prompts for Global Attribute Change
If you respond "No" to the Edit
attributes one at a time prompt, the next set of questions will appear.
Edit just the screen's visible
attributes?
Indicates whether properties that are not visible
should be excluded. Changes do not take effect right away. Unless REGENAUTO,
which manages automatic regeneration, is turned off, the drawing is regenerated
at the conclusion of the command.
(AutoCAD LT does not support REGENAUTO.)
· Yes.
· No.
To change a string, type it.
Put a value here for the attribute you want to
modify.
A fresh string
Add a new value for the attribute.
