Apply Geometric Constraint (GEOMCONSTRAINT on page 856) Applies or
persists geometric relationships between objects or points on objects.
Display / Hide Constraints Bar (CONSTRAINTBAR on page 358) Displays
or hides the geometric constraints on an object.
Parameter Constraint (BCPARAMETER on page 224) Applies constraint
parameters to selected objects, or converts dimensional constraints to
parameter constraints.
Block Table (
BTABLE on page 283) Displays a dialog box to define variations
of a block.
Parameter (BPARAMETER) Adds a parameter with grips to a dynamic block
definition.
Action (BACTION) Adds an action to a dynamic block definition.
Define Attribute (
Attribute Definition Dialog Box) Creates an attribute
definition for storing data in a block.
Authoring Palettes (BAUTHORPALETTE on page 221) Opens the Block
Authoring Palettes window in the Block Editor.
Parameters Manager (PARAMETERS on page 1416) Opens the Parameters
Manager palette that includes all dimensional constraint parameters, reference
parameters, and user variables in the current drawing.
Close Block Editor (
BCLOSE on page 222) Closes the Block Editor.
Visibility Mode (BVMODE) Controls how objects that are made invisible for
the current visibility state are displayed in the Block Editor.
Make Visible (BVSHOW) Makes objects visible in the current visibility state
or all visibility states in a dynamic block definition.
Make Invisible (BVHIDE) Makes objects invisible in the current visibility
state or all visibility states in a dynamic block definition.
Manage Visibility States (
Visibility States Dialog Box on page 291) Creates,
sets, or deletes a visibility state in a dynamic block.
Visibility State Specifies the current visibility state displayed in the Block
Editor.
Parameters Tab (Block Authoring Palettes Window)
Provides tools for adding parameters to a dynamic block definition in the
Block Editor. Parameters specify positions, distances, and angles for geometry
