Get All Attributes

Is anyone aware of a way to get all named attributes of a part? In the legacy system we used to be able to just make the attributePattern filter an empty map and it would return all map attributes, but it looks like using an empty string in the name field of getAttribute/getAttributes does not return anything.

    Don't think so :/ Was pretty frustrated about this a while back, but in the end it made my code cleaner. Ended up creating a library of accessor functions for getting/setting all important attributes.

    Yes we ended up doing the same thing, which I agree does make for a cleaner codebase. I wrote a custom feature that uses those getters and setters and creates a custom table that parses the map and cleanly displays those attributes, and it would be nice to know all of the information available on a part. For now I just settled on adding a search function to the feature that searches for the attribute whose name matches the search query.
