Auto Stretch Wipeout

Hai, Autocad Genius,

I have a Block with an ATT, is that possible to add a wipeout into that with reference to stretch as per ATT data?

If I understand right what you're looking for try this: instead of a Wipeout use a background masked attribute.

To get this, follow these steps:

"... select "Multiple lines" in Attribute Definition window (ATTDEF command).

Than after you enter Tag and Prompt values, click on [...] box for Default. Next, specify location of attribute and select Background Mask from options icon at Text Formatting toolbar."

As a little bit of extra help. Change the Multiline text width to 0

This has the effect of "stretching/shrinking" the mask to the exact width of the text you have written.
