      Hi drafters, hope you can help me with that one. It's a question concerning sketchup but also autocad.

      When I export a 3D model to dwg, and I open it with autocad, I notice that sketchup (or acad) have created an attribut for every group in the model. So I can see little text everywhere saying GROUP #345, GROUP#267.. etc.

      Doesn't seems to do it with component, only with groups.

      This is a bit annoying. Mostly when you have a lot of groups, into groups, into groups... I struggled in cad to find a LISP able to delete all nested attribut. I found a few. Mostly by using ATTOUT and ATTIN command but so far... no success. Most of LISP (like attdel.lsp) give me error message. And when I try removing the attribut in the bloc. Cad can't find it... even with QSEL. The only tric I found is to rename the attribut with a space, so nothing is shown in the drawing. But this is only a bandaid... not a real fix!

      Any idea!

        Have you tried:

        • attdel2.lsp
        • PURGE-ATTRIBS.LSP
          Can you post the skp/dwg file or something similar?

        Regards, SU 'beginner'
