&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;1/&amp;nbsp;I want to repeat once again - in AutoCAD for Mac you cannot edit double-click actions in CUI editor.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Here is how CUI editor looks like in AutoCAD for Mac - only "Commands" and "Menus" customization available in it:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-center" image-alt="2017-07-14_20-33-26.png" style="width: 705px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/378002i72A5A5553516723A/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;amp;px=999" role="button" title="2017-07-14_20-33-26.png" alt="2017-07-14_20-33-26.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;2/ So, looks like you are using AutoCAD for Windows.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I tested just now and the trick described in this article:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;A href="https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad/learn-explore/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/Using-the-In-Place-Block-Editor-REFEDIT.html" target="_blank"&gt;https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad/learn-explore/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/Using-the-In-Place-Block-Editor-REFEDIT.html&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;(actually you gave the link to it in your previous post)&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;works fine on my system with AutoCAD 2017 for Windows.&lt;/P&gt;

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I commonly use the 'edit block in place' command by double clicking a block. (My BLOCKEDITLOCK is set to 1). However, the new version of autocad defaults this double click action to open the properties palette. (no idea who thought that would be remotely helpful).&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;When I open the CUI customization, I'm able change the macro to:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;$M=$(if,$(and,$(&amp;gt;,$(getvar,blockeditlock),0)),^C^C_refedit,^C^C_bedit). &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;However, this does not work as it did in the past. (still just opens the properties). If I restart my AC, the macro reverts back to the&amp;nbsp;default which was:&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;$M=$(if,$(and,$(&amp;gt;,$(getvar,blockeditlock),0)),^C^C_properties,^C^C_bedit)&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;I thought maybe entering a new value for WSCURRENT would help, but it has not.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Any advice is much appreciated.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>Welcome to Autodesk Forums!&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Hi John,&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Are you using AutoCAD for Mac? Or AutoCAD for Windows?&lt;BR /&gt;I'm asking, because in AutoCAD for Mac you cannot use CUI command to change double-click actions and you are posting in AutoCAD for Mac Forum.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Maxim</description>

      <description>Thanks maxim - yes, I'm on autocad for mac 2017. I believe I've been able to do this in the past without any problem.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;I usually can open the cui customizer, search for double click, block and I can change the macro.&lt;BR /&gt;</description>

      <description>CUI editor in AutoCAD for Mac allows only create custom commands (macros) and assign them to pull-down menu and to the Tool Sets palette buttons.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;BTW, when BLOCKEDITLOCK is set to 1 (as in your case) double-clicking a dynamic block in a drawing opens the Properties palette. If the dynamic block contains attributes, double-clicking the block reference opens the Enhanced Attribute Editor.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Maxim</description>

Only recently (2017 version) has not been possible.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I can still easily right click the block and edit it in place... I just can't figure out why I can no longer change this Macro.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Thanks Maxim - Definitely not try to argue with you, and I'm sure you're right about the double click actions generally.&amp;nbsp;In my CUI for AC Mac 2017 (and previous versions), there is a "command" called 'Block - Double Click'... it's the only double click reference&amp;nbsp;in there, but I've edited this macro in the past.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="Screen Shot 2017-07-14 at 1.42.06 PM.png" style="width: 705px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/378007i8DE88336FD9A72C1/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;amp;px=999" role="button" title="Screen Shot 2017-07-14 at 1.42.06 PM.png" alt="Screen Shot 2017-07-14 at 1.42.06 PM.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Just as the link we both referenced, it is exactly as described for the windows version. However, if I change 'properties' to 'Refedit', the CUI will not retain that change. It will not work and will revert to the properties macro upon restart.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>Yes, now I understand what do you mean.&lt;BR /&gt;In previous versions you were able to edit macro assigned to double-click on block action, because it is stored inside main menu CUI file.&lt;BR /&gt;In AutoCAD 2017 the main CUI file was moved from ~/Library/Application Support/Autodesk/AutoCAD XXX/RXX.X/roaming/CUI folder to the folder inside AutoCAD application to protect it from unauthorized changes. That is why you cannot change the macro permanently.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Maxim</description>

      <description>BTW: you still can change double-click action for block by editing main CUI file inside AutoCAD application folder, but this trick not recommended by developers.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Maxim</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Thanks Maxim - That was the problem.&amp;nbsp;&lt;SPAN&gt;I can't believe that'd make it that difficult for someone to change.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Navigating inside of the AutoCAD application package, granting myself permissions, opening the 'MenuGroup.cui' file in textedit, searching for 'double', and then manually replacing the macro worked.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;So far the application seems stable since the change. (however, a backup of the original file is saved to my desktop)&lt;/P&gt;</description>
