Feature Request - ATTOUT and DATAEXTRACTION

I post this every few years to see if it ever catches on...

 

Would love either DATAEXTRACTION to include block handles or ATTOUT to include XYZ coords of the parent block.

 

Or if DATAEXTRACTION could push data from an xls/csv *back* into a CAD file.

 

Great tools that are oh-so-close to be perfect. I guess that's what the subscription fee is - the never-ending quest in perfection. "It's coming in a future release!!"

@oiverson hi,

 

AutoCAD has ATTEXT command (since attributes block was introduced AutoCAD ver 1 or maybe 2) that can extract attributes blocks and in addition to block name,coordinates,scale,rotation,attributes you can specify the block handel  BL:HANDEL and block level BL:LEVEL which is the block nesting level.

parent block is nesting level 1 a nested (in one) is nesting level 2 and so on....see this link ATTEXT

and if attext find a nested block it will extract it's coordinates but in WCS.

 

note again: attext will work only if you have attribute blocks (so if yours blocks doesn't have attributes you can still run it if you add an invisibile dummy attribute)

 

does this help?
