Summary
You can only use the btestblock command in the
Block Editor on page 231.
With the Test Block window you can test a dynamic block without closing
the Block Editor. You can select the block reference and test the grips or display
the Properties palette and test the behavior when changing the properties.
You can also insert additional copies of the block to test the inserting behavior.
You can make changes and test the block without saving the changes to the
block definition.
In the Test Block window, all AutoCAD commands operate the same way
except the
BEDIT on page 223, SAVE on page 1685, SAVEAS on page 1685, and
QSAVE on page 1583 commands. The bedit command is not available in Test
Block window. The save, saveas, and qsave commands remove the Test Block
status from the window and the Test Block window becomes an open drawing.
