How to Edit Block Attributes in BricsCAD

Quick answer: Block attribute values are editable directly in the Properties panel, the reference-level editing distinguished from definition-level editing elsewhere in this hub.

Editing Block Attribute Values

1. Select a block containing attributes; their current values display in the Properties panel.
2. Select the specific attribute you want to edit; its settings field activates.
3. Type a new value, then press Enter or select another attribute to continue.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this change the attribute’s definition, or just this one block’s values? Just this block reference’s values. Changing the underlying attribute definition itself works differently, covered on this hub’s attribute definitions page.

Can I edit several attributes on the same block one after another? Yes, after typing a value and pressing Enter, just select the next attribute you want to edit in the Properties panel.

Where do I see a block’s current attribute values before editing them? Select the block; its attributes and their current values display directly in the Properties panel.
