Multi-Assign Attributes

The Boundary | Attributes | MultiAssign command assigns IDs and hyperlinks to multiple selected objects. Clicking Boundary | Attributes | MultiAssign opens the Assign Attributes to Selected Objects dialog box.

Assign Attributes to Selected Objects Dialog

Use the Assign Attributes to Selected Objects dialog to assign PIDs, SIDs, Attributes, and

hyperlinks to objects

Assign PID, SID, Attributes, or Hyperlink

Click in the Assign PID, Assign SID, Assign Hyperlink (file path, URL or text (append shorthand with | if there is any)) check boxes to select which attributes to assign to the selected objects

Prefix

Type into the Prefix input box to designate a shared prefix for the selected objects.

Start index

Type a starting number for the progressive index in the Start index input box. Objects will be assigned sequential numbers starting at the bottom object and finishing at the top object in the Object Manager. Leave the Start index box blank to assign identical attributes to all selected objects.

Suffix

Type a shared suffix into the Suffix input box.

Example

Assume three objects are selected, and Boundary | Attributes | MultiAssign is clicked. The letter "A" is entered into the PID Prefix input box, the number "0" default is left in the PID Start index input box, and the letter "B" is typed into the PID Suffix input box.

The selected objects' PIDs will be assigned "A0B, A1B, A2B" from bottom to top in the Object Manager or back to front on the layer.
