Dynamic Block with multiple insertion points

[buckeyefever2]

I'm using AutoCAD LT 2010 and I've read that you can create a dynamic block with multiple insertion points. And switching these insertion points is as simple as hitting the CTRL key. I've created my block and when I "test block" it seems to be true. But, when I save my block and enter my model space and try to insert the same block I can no longer flip through the insertion points. I've attached the troublesome block in this post. What I'm trying to do is being able to attach the block to different walls easily and effectively.

You added a bunch of point parameters, but did not apply any actions to them. 

You need to add a 'Move' action to each point, and be sure to include each point into each action so you can move your symbol at-will.

as far as ctrl key cycling, I'm unfamiliar with that. but at first glance, you had the points just no action.

see attached.

Thanks,

You don't need to add any actions to the points.

Your block is annotative which is why the Ctrl for cycling multiple insertion points will not work. If you make the block non annotative it will work.

Well, that's a huge flaw in my opinion. This would have saved that extra steps of placing the block down using the move command to pick the point in which I want to use to attach to a wall. I'm assuming there's an explanation as to why this doesn't work with an annotative block...

While you wait...

With "regular" blocks (annotative or not):
INSERT <enter>
BLOCKNAME <enter>
B <enter>
select a new insertion point on the block
continue with your insertion.

It's been around for a very very long time: start watching the command line and explore those mysterious extras that lurk around.
