Hi folks,
Somewhere between version 3.16.7, and 3.17.3 I have lost the ability to colour block attributes independently of the block they attach to.
Can anyone else verify this?
Andrew, any thoughts?
Thanks

Re: Block Attributes Properties
For compatibility reasons, attributes always have the same color as the block reference they belong to if they are on layer 0. Layer 0 behaves different than other layers in many respects. If you wish to avoid these layer 0 effects, it's probably best to avoid layer 0 altogether.
Re: Block Attributes Properties
Aha!
Some of the Blocks were on layer 0 in the drawing; moving them to a layer other than 0 make the attributes works as expected.
Thanks Andrew, I had forgotten that it's best not to use layer 0 for anything other than constructing blocks.

Barry.
