Click on the button "Batch Rendering" or "Take Screenshot" to start your rendering on SketchUp. AutoCAD attributes are an easy way to add metadata to drawing blocks which can be used for a variety of reports as well as populating searchable Vault properties.How to render on SketchUp software. Attributes have many different configurations and settings which are often either missed during their creation or their properties need to be changed to match their end use. AutoCAD Block Attribute Manager, also know by its command name of "Battman", can manipulate most any attribute configuration or setting except one, it cannot create attributes. It can even remove attributes from a block without exploding it. Once block attributes are created, the command is an invaluable tool. I will be creating a block from a drawing of the plan view of a office copier. It will be a nested block with the Copier Control Panel being nested inside the Office Copier main block. There will be one attribute in the Copier Control Panel block containing the "Access Code" and three attributes in the main block for "Make and Model", "Location" and "Price". All entities are drawn on layer "0" so the block will take on the layer properties it is inserted on.Īfter the block is created, one of the best features of the Block Attribute Manager is needed. When I created the Office Copier block, I failed to select the attributes in the order I wanted them to appear in the block attribute editor. Starting the Block Attribute Manager, I can either select the block or pick it from the list of drawing blocks. Once the Office Copier block is selected, the dialog box will list all the attributes found in that block. I can then use the "Move Up" or "Move Down" commands to make sure they appear in the right order when the block is inserted. This will save a lot of time compared to the only other option (explode the block) to accomplish the order change. One of the beauties of the Block Attribute Manager is that it can even be used to edit attribute properties in nested blocks.
In my example, the Copier Access Code attribute value should have been set to "Invisible" but it was missed.
