Remarks

The attribute position, rotation, height and width factor values also includes the transformation of the Insert entity to which it belongs.
During the attribute initialization a copy of all attribute definition properties will be copied, so any changes made to the attribute definition will only be applied to new attribute instances and not to existing ones. This behavior is to allow imported Insert entities to have attributes without definition in the block, although this might sound not totally correct it is allowed by AutoCad.
