I am trying to write attributes for tree locations to a block I have created using a template with the DWGStyler. Do I need to first specify those attributes in the block template or is it possible to write the attributes to the Blocks when I write the new DWG?
Question
How do I add attributes to AutoCAD Blocks

I would suggest adding them to the template, so that you always adapt your template ( which is easier to manage and remember)

If you want it for the whole dwg (i.e. all are blocks that have attributes, you can set the output dwg to use "Inserts"
If its just a single layer within the dwg, you can expose a format parameter (autocad_entity) in the output featuretype and pass it the value "autocad_insert"

Is it possible to fill in the block attributes as well? How should I proceed?
