How to enter Attributes for multiple steps at once

Using Teststand 2019, is it possible to enter the same attribute value for multiple selected steps at once without using API programmatic tool scripting?  Currently selecting more than one step grays out the Attribute editor icon.  I'd like to add the same string attribute to a large group of steps, and clicking through to the Attribute editor for each step would take a prohibitive amount of time.

Don't think so!

 

Attributes are cool, yet they are not used that widely. So from NIs perspective, I don't think expanding the Editor to do so doesn't offer an attractive cost/ benefit ratio

 

Yet.... from time to time, I appreciate to be proven wrong in order to learn!

 

Nevertheless, feel free to post a request at the TestStand Idea Exchange, if noone else comes up with a better answer

Darn, thanks.  I have scripts that can do it but was hoping for something easier.  I'm using attributes to determine behavior around code analyzer, so I need to put a tag in for some steps to ignore certain rules.
