Did you sync your attribute? are you using annotation?

Talking to yourself again?  That means you are either crazy or have money in the bank.

No John I'm not crazy and my bank account never went above 3 digits. but I did reply to a message that just disappeared .. here it is..

Posted By: PMourao

I am trying to create an list of materials as a block. For that iam using the visibility states, so i can choose how many lines i want to appear in the list.

My problem is > when i insert an attribute definition in my block, in the block editor, the only place where i can see them is in the block editor, when i close it i cant see the attributes that i made.

The attributes were set to be Invisible would be my first guess.

As for the disappearing message perhaps Sherlock Holmes can help you find it.

I'm almost certain the missing information was because the "Invisible" box was checked in the attribute definition stage.  They can be made visible again, but it's not as straight forward as you might think.  BATTMAN won't do it.  That's a different question however.
 
What kind of puzzles me here is what the OP (the invisible OP) was trying to do.  I've spent a lot of time lately working with attributed blocks (and a great deal of intentionally set invisible attributes) using DATAEXTRACTION to create custom quantities tables.  I'm having a hard time understanding how the OP was going to use visibility states in a single block to do this.
 
Sounds more like a misdirected effort really.  If quantities tables from blocks is needed, DATAEXTRACTION is the key.
 
just my 2 cents... adjusted for inflation.
