      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;How is it possible to select all blocks (1 per layout tab) in my drawing? I want to select them all to make (the same) changes to all the attributes.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I've found something with&amp;nbsp;(ssget "_X" '((0 . ""))) etc. but I have no idea what to do with that.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi,&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I suggest to use &lt;STRONG&gt;FIND&lt;/STRONG&gt; command which will search all needed attributes including layouts and will change it in one command.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;They're still blank, so there's not much to 'find'.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I also tried the command&amp;nbsp;&lt;EM&gt;battman. &lt;/EM&gt;It shows the total amount of blocks in my *.dwg, and I'm able&amp;nbsp;to make adjustements to all the attributes, but theres no option to give fill in the attributes.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;It's kinda hard to explain but I'll give it a shot.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;The block is now empty. When I need to create a new version, I want to add a '4' to the block. When it's the 3rd version, I want to have 3 times a '4' in my block. I can't use the visibility parameter, since I used that one to select the person who made the drawing.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I can easily replace the attributes by normal text, since it's always a 4. But that means every page (tab) has the same version, and that's not always the case. I want to keep them as attributes to make changers per paper, but for now I want to select them all to set them all to the first revision.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;It looks complicated, but the main question is quite simple: "How to select every block in my *.dwg (to fill in 1 or more attributes)?"&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1169632"&gt;@jeroendewind﻿&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;It would be helpful to attach a sample file for me to look at so I am sure that I really understand what you are doing.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;There is no feature that will allow you to find the empty attributes especially across model and paperspace.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Have you considered using fields linked to custom drawing properties to do this instead?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Here's an example of a drawing with my block.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;All the info in the red block is automatically filled in by another program with all the project info. The block I made has info for that sheet only, and has a visibility state to select the person who made the drawing (including his signature, that's why&amp;nbsp;it's a visibility parameter).&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;When I make the sheet final, it also automatically generates the green texts in Screenshot_4; version A, B, C etc. including date, person and reason for creating a new version. The problem is, every final version needs have a 4, and the program making the revisions only can only add an A, B, C etc. So that's why I made these attributes.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;When I want to make all sheets final, version B for example, I want to select all the blocks in the *.dwg and fill in attribute A and B both with a 4.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I can do it sheet by sheet, but that takes a long time (it happens with other projects and blocks also) and I want to keep it as attributes since sometimes only sheet X&amp;nbsp;needs to get a new version, and the others must stay the same.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Hope I explained it good,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Jeroen&lt;/P&gt;</description>

&lt;P&gt;Did the video made by Volker help you get started with fields? If not I will slap him a bit as he sits right next to me &lt;img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://forums.autodesk.com/html/@38DF24EF580240D512020314976B5FC8/emoticons/1f642.png" alt=":cara_con_una_leve_sonrisa:" title=":cara_con_una_leve_sonrisa:" /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Thanks for the help. I've learned some new stuff using fields.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;But I don't know the difference between a text in a block with my name or using the commando fields to insert author in my block and then change it all in my drawing properties. Both give the same result: in every block my name.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
