// Use of 'AlignmentPoint' or 'Position' depends on type of attachmentPoint.
// BaseLeft uses 'Position', all others use 'AlignmentPoint'
if (attRef.Justify == AttachmentPoint.BaseLeft)
attRef.Position = newAttPos;
else
attRef.AlignmentPoint = newAttPos;

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

I have done already program for modify attribute insertion point, and its working.

My issue is in AutoCAD screen, how can i identify the attribute insertion point.

For example: once we select block on AutoCAD screen then block will be highlighted with insertion point like that is there any way to identify attribute inserting point.

Thanks in Advance.

You will need to first determine the attribute reference's .Justify property value. If this value == AttachmentPoint.BaseLeft then the attribute 'insertion point' is found like so:

Point3D insertionPt = attRef.Position;

If the value <>AttachmentPoint.BaseLeft then:

Point3D insertionPt = attRef.AlignmentPoint
