System VARIABLE for block insertions
System VARIABLE for block insertions
(OP)
Inserting a block into a current drawing session has taken on some interesting behavior- almost as if a system variable has been reset or something.
I inserted a block & realized it needed to be redrawn. I redrew the block in the file stored in our blocks folder. I returned to my drawing, and tried to reinsert it by selecting browse instead of the internal block from the drop-down list. Instead of asking me if I wanted to redefine (& replace) the internal block with the external one, it reinserts the internal block.
Is there a system variable that controls this behavior ?
Tks-

Yes I can type stuff in to force the action I want, but you know, the path and the block name and typing the command in the first place, well, thanks but- see above.
I guess we have another "improvement" to work around. Oh well.
Thoughts?
