Hello guys! I have a block with 6 visibility which I can change easyli with the drop-down list. It works well. But if I change the scale of the block it lose the drop-down list. In the block editor I can see the 6 different states but no drop-down list in the model space. Why? Could you help me? Do you have any ideas? thank you for the answer! T |

It would help if we had a copy of the block to play with. ------------- "Humans have a strength that cannot be measured. This is John Connor. If you are reading this, you are the resistance." <<AutoCAD 2015>> |

Of course! Here is the block. uploads/341466/block.dwg" rel="nofollow - block.dwg If I change the scale on the properties panel (Ctrl + 1) I lose the drop-down list. But If I use the "Scale" command then I will have drop-down menu after the scaling as well.

So you can scale the block after all just not by using the Properties palette. Well I just tested your block using AutoCAD 2015 and changing the X, Y and Z scales in the Properties palette to .5 and I did not lose the drop-down list. You must have done something unusual. ------------- "Humans have a strength that cannot be measured. This is John Connor. If you are reading this, you are the resistance." <<AutoCAD 2015>> |

Well that is an option too. When you went through the Properties palette did you change all three scales (X, Y, and Z) or just X and Y? ------------- "Humans have a strength that cannot be measured. This is John Connor. If you are reading this, you are the resistance." <<AutoCAD 2015>> |
