Block Attribute Manager
If a block contains a large number of attributes, it is convenient to use Block Attribute Manager for quick editing of attributes directly in the drawing.
The Manager changes the attributes to define a block (not a reference). To update existing references, use block reference attribute synchronization.
You can edit attribute descriptions in blocks, remove attributes from blocks, and change the order in which attribute values are prompted when inserting a block.
Ribbon: Home, Insert – Block > 
Block Attribute Manager
Menu: Edit – Object > Attributes > 
Block Attribute Manager
Command line: BATTMAN
The Manager will be launched only in case if at least one block with attributes is available in the drawing.
The Manager displays the following information:
Block: - name of the block whose attributes are being edited;
The 
Select block button allows you to select on the screen the block for editing attributes. The dialog box temporary closes.
Information for the selected block is displayed below the attribute list:
Found in drawing – the number of block references in the current drawing;
Found in model space – the number of block references in the current tab.
