Block shows attribute but doesn't have an attribute
I have this block in the attached drawing. When double-clicked, an attribute edit field shows up. But when I go inside the block using block editor, I don't see any attribute. When I explode the block there is no attribute inside it. When I use the burst command that text that was an attribute remains as expected.
What is going on here?
Thanks,
Ashhar

Hi @arazaSNXR7
This happens when someone deletes the attribute inside the block in the block editor. Though the attribute is deleted it would still show it as the attribute is present. Attributes reflect the changes made in the block only when you sync them using the command "ATTSYNC". But in this case, since the block doesn't contain even a single attribute the "ATTSYNC" command doesn't work. Try this: Type in the command "INSERT" and try to insert a new block named "LED" you would see the attribute is no more inside the block ![]()

@arazaSNXR7 hi,
To add on what @vinodkl said ... when you insert an attribute block, the attributes become part of the block reference (insert) object, they stay even if the attributes is erased from the block definition. only when you use Block Attribute Manager (BATTMAN, ATTSYNC) commands you actually make a sync between the two. the reason for this is to prevent accidental lost of attributes.

Hi,
...also to add...
To repair this issue you can open the block editor with this block. Add the attribute definitions (important: same name as you see when you double click the inserted block to edit the attribute values). Then close the block editor with saving and run command _ATTSYNC for this block.

Try following, it worked for me: NCOPY, select visible "problematic" attribute, Copy it to the same place @,
then do REFEDIT to the block, Add copied Attribute To Working Set, Save Changes and voila', now your attribute became editable.
good luck
