Attributes
Posted: Tue Jan 08, 2013 8:49 pm
I have no experience working with attributes, so I've started looking into them a little bit recently. I was curious, if you F2F a symbol/block which is associated with an attribute, are you able to have the attribute read the point description for the point and display said description? For example, I have the code oak10 for a 10 inch oak tree. If I F2F the point, the description will display as 10". If I F2F the symbol for the oak tree, the oak tree symbol with the default attribute xx" are displayed. I do not want to "tie" the point itself with the symbol, but I am hoping to be able to have the attribute read the point description in a similar manner as the point F2F does. Does anyone know if this is possible and/or the best way to accomplish this? Thanks.
