Notes
- Every reference of the block changes, also those inside other blocks; each one keeps its point, scales, rotation, layer and the values of the attributes with the same tag.
- A block cannot be replaced with one that contains it. The Express Tools do not load in the AutoCAD console: it has a unit test, checked against their documentation.
