.. _delete_dxf_attributes:
Delete DXF Attributes from Entities
===================================
All DXF attributes of an entity are grouped in the namespace attribute :attr:`dxf`.
You can delete a DXF attribute by the `del` operator:
.. code-block:: Python
line = msp.add_line((0, 0), (1, 0))
line.dxf.layer = "MyLayer"
del line.dxf.layer
assert line.dxf.layer == "0" # the default layer for all entities
The `del` operator raises an :class:`DXFAttributeError` if the attribute doesn't exist
or isn't supported. The :meth:`discard` method ignores these errors:
.. code-block:: Python
line.dxf.discard('text') # doesn't raise an exception
.. seealso::
