create block with dims & finish
create block with dims & finish
(OP)
I was tring to create a block that had a couple dims and a surface finish call out on it that would be used by several people. When I inserted the block into a new drawing I got the dims but no surface finish symbol.
Does anyone know if this is possible to do.

RE: create block with dims & finish
The best thing to do, might be to draw your own SF symbol within the block, and put the value in as a note. After you make the block, you can right click on it and select `Edit Definition' whereby you can convert the finish value to an attribute by giving it a tag name. At least that way, each instance of the block that you insert later on can have its own value.

>>A block isn't associated to any drawing view.
well, you CAN associate the block with a DXF, which is exported from a view....
