RE: Visibility of Objects Revised

Can not make any sense as to what you are trying to say

RE: Visibility of Objects Revised

(OP)
ok here is why i needed to make objects invisible.
I have an object that i want to make a block with two types of attributes - some that will be edited by someone else and some that remain constant and never change. I dont want others to be able to see, edit, or know about the constant blocks, so i figured, when creating the block making specific attributes invisible (not by selecting the invisible option in the attribute dialog, but setting them invisible before they are added to the selection set for making the block)
ok, you there with me so far?
now, doing this prevents me from exporting the data that is in the invisible attributes. So how do you export either attributes inside nested blocks, or how do i go about exporting attributes that are invisible prior to block creation?  Sorry for confusion.

if everyone helps everybody the world will be a better place
