That's not possible at the moment since QCAD creates a block and block reference for the library item at the time when it is inserted. I.e. those objects don't exist before the insertion.
I can think of the following solution:
- A library item could contain a block definition with the same name as the file name and a single block reference to that block. That block reference could have custom properties assigned to it.
- QCAD could then copy that block reference with custom properties when inserting an item.
This functionality would have to be implemented first. At this point, QCAD would create a block recursion if a library item contains a block with the same name as the file name.
Do you think the above solution would solve the problem for your use case?
