Block reference with constraint (gray) and constraint parameter (blue, with grip)
You can select a block reference and list its editable parameters with
-PARAMETERS. When you change the value of the parameter, the block
reference is updated accordingly.
Remove Block Definitions
To reduce the size of a drawing, you can remove unused block definitions.
You can remove a block reference from your drawing by erasing it; however,
the block definition remains in the drawing's block definition table.
To remove unused block definitions and decrease the drawing size, use PURGE
at any time in your drawing session.
All references to a block must be erased before you can purge the block
definition.
