How about a increment attribute changer. Is there anything out there for that?

For Ex. to increment door number in door blocks....

Couldn't you just add a "+1" argument into the lsp?

Oh, but wait-how do you determine the order?
with mine, I just window a whole area of blocks and it changes the attribute I want all to the same value. :?

... The FIND/REPLACE  commands dont work because they "FIND" the seqence of numbers in ALL of the attributes (not just room#) and "REPLACE" messing up all the blocks (found out that one the hard way)
HELP...... :? [/url]


Actually, although the default behavior for find/replace is to work on the entire drawing, you can select entities and have it work only on those entities.  Just click the button in the dialog to the right of where it says "Entire drawing."


Oops.  I see that I misinterpreted your post.  Of course you are right.  Find/Replace doesn't allow you to filter for specific attribute tags.  Sorry.
