Insert multiple columns at X and Y's with Attribute

Anonymous — Tue, 06 Jun 2017 13:51:30 GMT

Hi There,

I'm trying to add over 500 Lighting Columns onto a drawing with its associated number. i.e Block-XXXX

I have an excel spread sheet with all X and Y's in the format of xxxxxx, xxxxxx and use PTManager to import all columns onto the drawing.

I have then associated an attribute to the block, so now all all columns have XXXX next to them. Used the Attout command and then pasted all of the numbers into the set values.

When I Attin, the column numbers are not what they should be for their X and Y counter-part. See below

Is there a fix for this, or a better way to achieve my goal

I think you posted in the wrong forum. LT doesn't have the ATTOUT and ATTIN commands
