DWG Import : bloc attributes not displayed

Post by roro » Fri Sep 04, 2020 4:09 pm

Hello,
I'm using QCAD Version 3.25.1.0 (3.25.1) in MAC OS 10.15.6

When I import a dwg file, all the block attributes are not displayed : I would like to know if this feature is not supported by QCAD or if this is just a question of setting somewhere...

Block attributes are supported (ATTRIB entity and ATTDEF entity).

However, this looks like something else. If you can attach your file, I can tell you more.

Thanks. These are not regular block attributes. My best guess is that this file was produced with a software that extends the DXF/DWG format. Some kind of add-on or extension to a CAD product.

I'm afraid, this is not something QCAD will be able to support.
