Hi everyone. I'm writing a dwg file from an excel sheet and i would like to know if it's possible to select/change the visibility state in a dynamic block.

I can create the blocks but they all came out with the same visibility (the first in block visibility list).

Thanks

Hi @renato_freitas,

It doesn't look like writing dynamic blocks is supported in FME yet but there was a suggestion to add support for this on our Ideas page. Here is the link if you would like to upvote the idea: https://knowledge.safe.com/content/idea/21982/writing-out-dynamic-blocks-to-autocad.html

 

If you would like to learn more about working with blocks in FME, I would definitely recommend checking out the AutoCAD DWG Block Attribute Extraction and the Give your DWG some Style: using the DWGStyler, template files, blocks and more articles.
