Bloc attributes - Tag missing in attribute editor

Hello, 

I am using a bloc with multiple attributes. In one of the files, two attributes are not listed in attribute editor. I couldn't figure out why. I used "design center" => "Redefine Only" and "ATTSYNC" nothing works. I copied the entire drawing to a file where the bloc was initially working properly, but once it is copied problem is still here, two attributes are not showing in the editor. Attributes was créated with mode "lock position" and "invisible". All other attributes with same settings work but not these two. I tried "_AUDIT", after that these two attributes got marked as "ACD_AUDIT_MISSING_TAG" (see the screen shot). Can someone help please ? Thanks.

Deniz

It looks like the issue with your block attributes stems from corruption or missing tags. Even though you used "Redefine Only" and "ATTSYNC," these commands cannot fix attributes whose definitions are missing, which is why the two attributes do not appear in the Attribute Editor. The _AUDIT command confirming them as ACD_AUDIT_MISSING_TAG indicates that the attributes exist in the drawing but their tag definitions are broken. Invisible and locked attributes are particularly prone to this problem, and copying blocks between drawings can sometimes trigger it. To resolve the issue, you should either delete and recreate the affected attributes in the Block Editor or use the Block Attribute Manager (BATTMAN) to repair or redefine them. If preserving existing data is important, you can export the attribute values before deletion and import them after recreating the attributes, ensuring nothing is lost.
