Attout issue

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hi all,

I'm facing an issue here about attout. I want to attout data for "SOR1" block. I selected all data which is in ''SOR1" i.e, total of 5076. However, in attout there 4665 items only.

 

Can you have any idea to get all data with attout command?

Hi,

>> However, in attout there 4665 items only

You have seen that you have unnamed blocks in your output file too?

Looking to your ATTOUT.TXT ... you have extracted 5076 lines, but some are unnamed blocks as you are using dynamic blocks (the source of these is the "SOR_1" block, but the visibility is changed to another state and so these blocks are the ones with *Uxxxx names.

There is a total of 1901 items in *U2,*U3,*U4 blocks.

Can we change *U2,*U3,*U4 blocks as a single unique block as "SOR_1".

Hi,

 

>> There is a total of 1901 items in *U2,*U3,*U4 blocks.

Yes, and these are based on the block "SOL_1", but with a different visibility state.

 

>> Can we change *U2,*U3,*U4 blocks as a single

>> unique block as "SOR_1".

You can find&replace in your text file, if you need the text file just for output.

But internal in the drawing you can't, at the moment you change the visibility state to anything else than the default one the block-insertion falls into the unnamed block handling.

not exactly what you asked for  but select all, mapexport with OD and blockData to SDF file and there are all 5076 records in the data table. Select all in the table and export to a .csv file, open in excel and save as .txt.  all the data appears to be there.

Here the problem is I need "HANDLE" for each block. Can we get it by mapexport or dataextraction.

And I can't able to see the data in DWG which is not visible in ATTOUT.

Hello

 

I have not downloaded your DWG which contains classic and dynamic Blocks !?

Because I have not any PC with AutoCAD at this moment !

 

So if I understand well the Topic and Answers ...

 

Please test an other improved version of ATTIN & ATTOUT which supports classic and dynamic Blocks

I hope it will help you !?

Hi,

 

Still alternative ways:
1. MAPEXPORT в mif/mif. The mid file is a comma-separated text file with attribute data. In fact, mid is csv.

MAPEXPORT.png
5076 lines in mid.


2. ODEDIT_EXPL, with csv creation. But only blocks that have OD will unload.
In dwg, 12 blocks have no OD. They 're easy to find ODEDIT_HAS_NO_OD.
To load attribute values into OD - ODEDIT_LOAD_ATTRS.
To update attributes values if the OD values have changed - ODEDIT_LOAD_ATTRS .
For these two commands, make the text matching file < block_name attribute_tag_name OD_name field_name > via tabs.
Making it easy with ODEDIT_ATTR_TEMPLATE.
