Hey everyone! First time poster, long time user.

 

I run Autocad 2010LT at work, where I do fire alarm drawings. I've been trying to create a dynamic block (sort of a one stop-shop) for my wiring diagrams, and wanted to include device text with it.

 

My question is, is there a way I can create a dynamic block with multiple visibility states where each state has it's own independent/editable attribute definition?

 

Basically what I'm trying to acheive is the ability to make a different description layout for each one of my device types. (They all have a different function, and a different address style) Really so I can minimize the time I spend edititng the formats when I'm trying to crank out a plan review ASAP.

 

Any help would be VERY much appreciated!!

 

Thank you everyone! :D

it may be possible in inventor but all my attempts in vanilla acad failed. I found that the visibility parameter seemed to confuse the attributes and I couldn't guarantee seeing the correct attributes for each state. How far have you got?
