My condition: I use AutoCAD to do Fire Alarm plans for a client. One of the redundant things I have to do is label a device on a floor plan with the same label as the same device on a riser diagram on a layout sheet. I construct my riser after laying the devices out on the floor plan. My problem is I have to do the label twice which takes a ton of time. Once on the floor plan and the same label for that device on the riser diagram. Possible solution: 1. Go through Label the block attribute once on floor plans. The labels are sequential once inputted. 2. Extract those attributes 3. Import those attributes into the blocks on the riser diagram...but individually. I want to be able to select the block and import the data in a one-to-one ratio in sequence as I go through selecting the corresponding block on the riser diagram. Basically after I've exported the data I want, I want to import the data on a block by block basis. I want to click a block and import a string a data, the next block i select takes the next string of data in the list sequentially and so on. Does something like that exist? Is that possible? Forever grateful.
