I am trying to set the annotation scale options for a block in CAD but I cannot seem to find the proper attribute or setting. 

I want to be able to set the available annotative scales similar to how its done for text below in the DWG styler. 

I want to have these scales preloaded for my block as seen below.

Hi ​@dbannon22,

Unfortunately, annotative blocks are not yet supported in FME (tracked internally as FMEENGINE-9881). I don’t believe that there is a format attribute in FME that controls the annotation scale for blocks. There is only the autocad_anno_scale{} attributes that control the annotation scale for text only.

I encourage you to click this link and submit an idea capturing your suggestion about supporting annotative blocks. Other FME Community users can upvote ideas, and our product team reviews them for future inclusion in FME.
