Imported a dwg file, many symbols with many attributes that I do not need to display the attributes.
1. Is there a general setting to turn off the display of all symbol attributes?
2. Is there a way to strip the symbols of attributes during the import dwg, or open dwg file?
3. Is there a macro out there than can do this?

None of these that I am aware of. Only thing I know to do is edit the symbols and delete the attributes or move them to a new off layer inside the symbol if you need to keep them. Hopefully it is not a drawing where every single symbol is unique. I hate those kinds of drawings. :x

I don't know if I have seen Joe's Attribute manager, but it would be useful in the future.
All I do to edit the Attributes one at a time is run my SA command Aliias
