Named objects that are not altered to make them unique assume the properties
of those in the current host drawing that share the same name.
Display Attribute Definitions for Editing
Controls whether all variable attribute definitions in block references are
extracted and displayed during reference editing.
If Display Attribute Definitions for Editing is selected, the attributes (except
constant attributes) are made invisible, and the attribute definitions are
available for editing along with the selected reference geometry. When changes
are saved back to the block reference, the attributes of the original reference
remain unchanged. The new or altered attribute definitions affect only
subsequent insertions of the block; the attributes in existing block instances
are not affected. Xrefs and block references without definitions are not affected
by this option.
Lock Objects Not in Working Set
Locks all objects not in the working set. This prevents you from accidentally
selecting and editing objects in the host drawing while in a reference editing
state.
The behavior of locked objects is similar to objects on a locked layer. If you
try to edit locked objects, they are filtered from the selection set.
