I want to create blocks from the lines in each layer and give the new blocks the last 5 digits from the original layer name.

so lines in layer 12345xxxx1 will be a single block with a name xxxx1 and the block placed on original layer 12345xxxx1

I got the block created and placed in the correct layer but couldn't figure out how to name it.

Hey @ghattas111​ 

Go to the Navigator -> ACAD WRITER ->Parameters -> Advanced -> "Use the block name to create block: from No to Yes!

 

this should do the work :)
