Attribute object

Class AcadAttribute

Member of BricscadDb

 

An Attribute (known as  Attribute Definition in BricsCAD) defines the prompt, tag string, default value, and display characteristics of an attribute. When you insert a block into a drawing you get a BlockRef object. If the BlockRef "has attributes," you can iterate through the Attribute objects in the Attributes collection using the HasAttributes property. Each Attribute is an individual instantiation of the Attribute Definition object in the Block. It is this Attribute object that contains the value of the attribute.

To access the Attribute object, use the following methods and properties:
