Global Attribute Editor & Extractor

[nolex]

This is a very powerful routine but I noticed that I couldn't edit tags that have special characters on its name.

Any fix to this?

This program will allow the user to extract all attributes from multiple blocks in multiple drawings, and will write all data to an Excel spreadsheet.

 

The user is prompted to create a list of block names from which attributes will be extracted.

 

The user is then prompted to select a directory of drawing files to process, and also provided with the option to process sub-directories of the selected directory.

 

Results will then be written to an Excel Spreadsheet, to be saved as the user wishes.

 

Among many other uses, this program may be used to create a Drawing List, by inputting the name of the titleblock, and the attributes that you want to extract from it, and setting the mode to 'Drawing List Mode' (within the 'Options' Dialog), so that the data is grouped in one list.

(See the Header for more info).

 

Your feedback, comments and suggestions are welcome

Hi Lee,

 

Is there an option for us to save the current entries we did just like how BFind lisp does?

Not with this application, but such functionality exists in my more recently developed (and arguably more powerful) Batch Attribute Editor application.
