Block Count Exploded Block Error

When I create more than one block shape other than a circle I'm getting I'm getting a exploded Block Error on my count table.  If you click on the block name in the count table it high lights all block shape that is identical in size.  The count is correct, but you loose the function of being able to confirm count of each block type with that shape.  How is this fixes

Yourt situation is totally normal

You actually only have one bloc of ''BASE- HANDSHAKE WITH OTHERS'' and that's why the countpannel is at one. The other 37 are object in the paper space. And they are line for line identical to the original bloc.

As they were exploded, they are not bloc anymore  but just line and shapes (objects in paper space). So those don't count to the bloc COUNT commande anymore.

To solve that, replace each exploded bloc by the actual bloc. To do so, clic on the exploded block error message. This will ajuste the view to that error in the paper space. Selecte the objects, delete, and replace with a new ''BASE - HANDSHAKE WITH OTHERS'' bloc. Redo the same steps for each exploded block error message

All of the blocks are done in model space and all the symbols are blocks. Even if I remake the symbol and it matches the exact same size of a existing symbol I get this error.
That is what I'm not understanding why this is happening.

You have this original bloc (the on overlayed in green by the COUNT command). That's a bloc
Those other overlayed in red ARE NOT BLOCS anymore. At least that what I can tell from these screenshots.

Do you remember how you inserted those reds one in your drawing ? If you did trought the BLOCSKPALLETTE commande , make sure that in the option tab at the botom of the block's pallette window, the ''Exploded'' option is unchecked.

Otherwise for further help, I'll need a .dwg file with the concerned bloc and exploded blocs.

I ran into this, and after some testing was able to recreate this issue manually.  (which I believe is not an issue, but working as intended)

I have blocks with rectangles, and when I manually draw in a new rectangle with almost the same aspect ratio (same distances albeit different scale) it will flag that rectangle as an exploded block.  I have this new rectangle on different layer, different aspect ratio by mere decimals, etc and if it's close enough, it gets flagged....

I believe the command is just using intelligence to identify what it "believes" to be a block that may have been accidentally exploded and reporting it as such.

[If some are not Blocks but have been Exploded, whether in the process of Inserting or afterwards, there's a routine out there somewhere called "Blockify" that may be able to identify the pieces as duplicating a Block, and turn them back into one.]
