Block descriptions not saving

edited July 25 in 2D Drafting

When I open a block in the block editor and apply a description (in this case a part number), the drawing that the description was applied inside of will show the block description in the drawing manager. I am also saving the bock as a file before leaving the block editor.

Then, when I close that drawing and drop the saved block into a new one, the description isn't there.

I'm trying to apply part numbers to all my blocks so that I can use drawing explorer to count all my parts when the drawing is finished, but this problem prevents me from doing that.

Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

  • This also happens when I explode a block, purge the drawing, and then create a new block and define the description on block creation. I then save with wblock to an entirely new file. Opening a new drawing before adding the saved block, no description.

    There must be a reason for this…
