Save Dynamic Blocks
When you save a block definition, the current values of the geometry and
parameters in the block become the default values for the block reference.
The default visibility state for the block reference is the visibility state at the
top of the list in the Manage Visibility States dialog box.
NOTE If you click File menu ➤ Save while you are in the Block Editor, you will
save the drawing but not the block definition. You must specifically save the block
definition while you are in the Block Editor.
To save a copy of the current block definition in the Block Editor under a
new name
1 Click Insert tab ➤ Block panel ➤ Block Editor.
2 Click Block Editor tab ➤ Open/Save panel ➤ Save Block As.
3 In the Save Block As dialog box, enter a name for the new block definition.
Click OK.
4 To save the block definition in the drawing, click File menu ➤ Save.
