3. Double-click the D grid symbol.
4. In the Enhanced Attribute Editor dialog box, repeat step 2 to change
D to C. The attributes are updated (see Figure 9.13).
The exercises in this chapter so far have illustrated the basic procedures for
defining, inserting, and changing attributes. You can apply these same proce-
dures to the process of setting up a title block in which attributes are used for
text that changes from one sheet to the next. You can now move to a more com-
plex application of the attribute feature to see its full power.

Setting up Multiple Attributes in a Block
The cabin has three rooms and two decks, with the kitchen and living room shar-
ing the same space. Each room has a different area and floor covering. You can
store this information, along with the room name, in the drawing as attributes.
You'll set up a block that consists of three attributes (name, area, and covering).
