Hi Richard,

A private block is on the report itself therefore the entities are edited direct in the report

A private block is a part of the report it’s inside of. This is unlike a drawing library or internal block, which is a library object that exists outside the report, and is included into it by reference. Private blocks are no more than a grouping mechanism for entities in the report. However, they are very useful for displaying or suppressing a group of entities together, as well as for moving a group of entities a specified distance in response to a specified condition.

Please see working with private blocks communities.bentley.com/.../12378.working-with-blocks-part-4-private-blocks

It seems that private blocks can't be open for editing?

Hi Irfan,

To modify the blocks, you will have to go the Blocks menu on the menu bar and the select Edit Log blocks.

Then you select the PAGE 1 HEADER from the yellow selector. Once you get here, you will be able to edit the information on this block.

Select the entity that you want to edit by double clicking the entity and either delete it through the Delete key on your keyboard or click on Erase command that will come at the bottom once you select the entity.
