Multiple Descriptions in Source/Destination Arrows

[Anonymous]

Once upon a time not so long ago there was a request for Autodesk to add the ability to have multiple Description Attributes embedded within the Source/Destination blocks and be able to fill those in using the Sigcode Dialogue. I checked in 2006 and noticed that it hasn't changed. I wanted to see if we could add it to the list. It would be nice to be able to have DESC1, DEC, DESC3 like you can use on other Electrical Symbols and the dialogue works with them. I would even be fine with being able to push the data to the various Descriptions using the "Pipe" symbol much like what is used in the Title Block update utility to allow for multiple lines in a title block. It would probably be more user friendly however to treat it just like the insert component dialogue that allows for up to 3 Descriptions by default.

If I am the only one that could use this then please disregard the request.

Good idea. Three DESCx attributes make sense since AcadE already supports up
to this number on components. I'll add your suggestion to the list.

We did add additional attributes to the blocks.
but you have to edit them with the "normal" autocad tools

Yes I realize the attributes are available but it would make more sense to add the ability to fill those attributes in while using the dialogue for editing/inserting source and destination arrows. It would be nice to either add additional entry fields in the dialogue like that in the edit/insert component or to allow for the usage of the | (pipe) like that in the sec/sub/desc of the project dialogue.
