Hi,

welcome @Anonymous.autodesk.com!

Run command _BEDIT, select the block which contains the attribute you want to change.

Within the blockeditor you can then select the attribute and modify it's size, close the blockeditor with saving (now you are back in modelspace), run command _ATTSYNC, type in the blockname to synchronize (same blockname you had opened in blockeditor) and let _ATTSYNC do it's job to update all insertions with that name.

You'll have to do that once for every block-definition (but not once for each insertion) 😉

Hi and Welcome to AutoDesk Forum,

by BATTMAN either you can EDIT the Heights then Sync will finish the job in one place.

Good Luck..

The BATMAN solution is a poor one.

AutoCAD should have a utility like AutoCAd Electrical where one can change the properties of many attributes without having to sync the attributes.  Syncing the attributes changes the position and rotation back to the block default, very frustrating.

Hi, I am having the same issue here. 

I can only change the text height only to one attribute at a time.

How can I change the text height of all attributes at once? Is it possible to select multiple attributes at once and than edit the property? 

I tried CTRL and select multiple or SHIFT on the first and than the last or CTRL+A to select all of them but it didn't work.

Any solution?

Hi,

>> How can I change the text height of all attributes at once?

Inside the block-editor? Just select the attributes you want to modify and change the height in the property window.

Doesn't this work?
