From Just starting out with this, when I open the attribute editor I can't seem to edit directly from the window, have to open a second window (3 dots) - Text Formatting and edit on screen. Also same when trying to edit from Properties bar. Is there a way around this for quick edits? Seems like I could just tab through these and edit in the editor in acad. TIA

    If you can see a attribute say have a "." as default prompt you can use CTRL and mouse pick to open that attribute up for edit.

    So are you just editing the text or want to edit a property ? Using a lisp would probably expose the properties of an attribute, again can select an attribute from a block by using (nentsel rather than (entsel which would pick the block.

    Just want to edit the text. Got the properties figured out. Got the text figured also just trying to avoid the additional steps, should be able to edit in the Attribute Editor without opening the text formatting window.

    Thanks
