ATTIPEDIT
 
 
 
Quick Reference

Changes the textual content of an attribute within a block.

Summary

If you select a single-line attribute, displays the In-Place Text Editor without the Text Formatting toolbar and the ruler. Right-click to display options.

If you select a multiple-line attribute, displays the In-Place Text Editor with the Text Formatting toolbar and the ruler. Depending on the setting of the ATTIPE system variable, the Text Formatting toolbar displayed is either the abbreviated version shown, or the full version.

Use the abbreviated version for compatibility with previous AutoCAD LT releases and editing operations. Use the full version for additional text formatting options.

The following prompts are displayed.

NoteNot all MTEXT formatting options are available for multiline attributes even with the full In-Place Editor.

Mask the Objects Behind Attribute Text

If the text in a multiple-line attribute overlaps other objects within the block, you can hide those objects that interfere with the text with a background mask. Click the Options button in the Text Formatting toolbar and click Background Mask to display the Background Mask dialog box.
