Dynamic blocks - attributes

Dear All,

 

let me describe my problem: I have a dynamic block with 5 visibility states and every state has attributes.

Some of the attributes are set to hidden for some of the states but when I test the block the attributes are 

still visible. Objects associated with the attributes obey the visibility states and those which are set to hidden 

are working fine but for some reason attributes don't. 

 

Thank you for your thoughts.

Posting a drawing with the block in usually helps us determine the problem.

 

If you insert the block in a new drawing, do the hidden attributes still show?

@h_s_walker  I have attached a sample drawing. 

 

When I insert the block in a new drawing, hidden attributes still show.

 

Thank you!

You need to change the tag references on all your attributes. They all need to be unique.

e.g. TAG1 TAG2 TAG3 ….

It doesn't make a difference. I even created new attributes with different tag references and recreated the visibility states but still the same.

Sorry, forgot to mention you need to LOCK the position of the attributes and do an ATTSYNC afterwards.
