Getting the "Handle" and "Anonymous Name" to populate in a Data Extraction

Greetings Autodesk Community,

 

I have a customer that needs both the "Handle" and "Anonymous Name" data to populate in a Data Extraction for some Blocks.

 

When I use the 'List' command on one of the Blocks that I am working with, I can see both the Handle and Anonymous Name, but these fields do not populate when I run a Data Extraction with all fields turned on and checked.

 

Do any of you know how to get these two fields to populate within a Data Extraction or another way to get all of the needed attributes from the Blocks AND these two fields to populate in a report/spreadsheet?

 

Thank you in advance,

Morgan.

Hi,

 

V1) Use ATTOUT instead of DATAEXTRACTION (if you don't need dynamic properties values)

 

V2) No, there is nothing ootb (see V3)

       But for your own standard blocks in future: Add additional attributdefinitions

       and paste this fieldcode as default:

        Blockname: %<\AcObjProp.16.2 Object(?BlockRefId,1).Name>%

        Insert Handle: %<\AcObjProp.16.2 Object(?BlockRefId,1).Handle>%

       (copy it from notepad and paste it in AttDef dialog / default)

       Insert a new blockreference (or run Attsync for existing ones)

       Run DataExtraction

 

 

or

 

V2) Use another tool to extract what you need. I can't think you will find one ready to use,

        but if you have the source code of this tool (Lisp source code for example) and it is allowed to edit

        this code for you, it's easy to add Handle/Name data
