Attribute inserting in wrong position

Anonymous
Not applicable

I have a simple block with (3) attributes.  The attributes will insert in different positions from where I had set them in the block editor. I have remade the block and seemingly random in terms of which attribute and what position it ends up in.

 

When I test the block it looks fine but when I drop it into a drawing one or some of the attributes will change position. Locking position doesnt help either (I dont want it locked anyway)

 

Any help appreciated!

Does running ATTSYNC after insertion set them in the right place?

Solved it I think. Where you first click to place the attribute is where it will place every time when inserted into drawing. When I would first place the attribute in the block, the preview of the text placement wasnt quite right so I would place attribute and adjust.

I solved this by creating points at the basepoint of each attribute in its correct location, deleting the attributes and recreating, placing on those basepoints despite what the text preview showed and it seems to be working now

Yes, but I was having to do that anytime I inserted it. I think I found the solution, I replied to my initial post.
