Title: How to update a block with entmod
Post by: dubb on January 13, 2017, 03:14:52 PM

I am pretty sure this question has been answered before. I'm still searching around for an answer.
I have a block, it contains a line and an attributed text. When I edit the entity with

Code: [Select]

(cons 50 0.0) It only rotates the line and not the entire block. I have attached the block in this post.

Code: [Select]

(defun c:test()
(setq en1 (car(entsel)))
(setq ed (entget en1))
(setq ed (subst (cons 50 0.0) (assoc 50 ed) ed ))
(entmod ed)
  )

Thanks in advance.

Try adding this line:

Code: [Select]

(command "_.ATTSYNC" "S" en1 "Y")

Or change the ActiveX rotation property of the VLA Block Reference object - this will affect any attributes held by the block.
