Command-line options
AttachTo
Object
Attaches text information to the object geometry.
If the information is closely associated with the geometry, attach it to the geometry. For example, a circle's radius should be attached to the geometry because the information will be invalid if the circle is control-point edited and changed into a NURBS curve.
Attributes
Attaches text information to the attributes of an object.
If the information is higher-level attribute information, like color, then it should be attached to the object's attributes. Attribute information will persist when an object is control-point edited, trimmed, copied, and so on.
