we have several columns of multiline text and draw a line to the left of each column. problem is when the text increases or decreases the number of rows the line does not change. is there a way to have this line dynamically change as the number of rows change? or is there a way to snap a line on the imaginary box around the text?

When we design vehicles, we often give dimensions that are based off the centerline of front axle. In a particular drawing view, if we don't show the actual axle, how can we dimension an item from this imaginary line that is located on the frame? I tried creating a sketch on the drawing view and drawling a line but I can't locate that line any particular way...meaning I can't put that line 50" back from the front of the framerail, for example.

Most of us create notations using mtext so it's easy to edit and manipulate. Is there a way to convert the single line text back to multiline after it's exploded?

How to get columns working in a multi line attribute.
I changed system variable ATTIPE (attribute in place editor) to 1 which added the extra formatting options but the columns button is greyed out. As a work around I just use tab stops but columns would be better if possible.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've been running AutoCAD 2006 since it came out and have been running it on Windows 7 since it came out. I've never had any problem runnning my LT version. Today, all of a sudden I cannot type text in the multi-tex box. The cursor moves in the box but nothing is shown. I click okay but cannot select anything. It's like the cursor is moving but not laying down text. I've changed the different fonts, colors and even changed my background from Black to While and still cannot see any text.
My single line text tool continues to work just not the multi-line text box.
I also tried restarting my computer and tried opening existing files. The multi-line box problem occurs on other files to.
We are using inventor 2011 and I would like to make the text wrap where I want it to not where the cell length determines. Can I do this in the ipropeties of the part? When I edit the parts list to move wrap the text manually the text turns blue of course, but this also negates the updating of parts automatically. In the part I use an expression to ensure that the description reverts back to the iproperties of the part ie =<G_L> X <G_W> - <MATERIAL>. I would like it to insert a text wrap then proceed to the next line with <STOCKNUMBER> - <PARTNUMBER> so I would look like:
12" X 6" - G40.21-44W
PL. 1/2 - PL-100
All of my multi leaders (mleaders) worked great in 2012 with the added "extend leader to text" for leaders on the end of a text string, but in 2013, they now attach to the end of the box again.
Some appear as though they are "trying" to extend, but the beginning of the leader without the extension now starts at the end of the box on the FIRST line.
See the attached examples:
Top one - Mleader is on the end of a text box larger than the actual text (NOTE: I have many drawings like this, opening them in 2013 is a nightmare)
Version #2 - Note what the leader does in this example, the "extend to end of text" is the correct length, but it starts at the edge of the box, not the end of the first line of text. Again, this worked fine in 2012.
Version #3 - This is what should happen, only happens if you adjust the text box size. I don't really want to spend my clients money updated dozens of multileaders on hundreds of drawings to force the mleader to work.
I required a lisp for sorting Multiline text in alphabetic order. (Ascending and Descending)
For example in my drawing it contains lot of Mtexts having multi rows. I need to sort texts inside Mtext. Like PDC-012, DAG-012, AAG-096. I need that Mtext should be AAG-096,DAG-012,PDC-012.
We are creating a new company title block for the use in Inventor 2010 and AutoCAd 2010. It has initially been generated in Inventor and exported to AutoCAD. My problem is that all attributes that came over are now setup as multiline attributes and I can't seem to change them to single line. Therefore you have to open the multiline editor separately for every single item to make changes in lieu of just 'tabbing' through the values in the Enhanced Attribute Editor. This adds time and frustration and seems to be intolerable for some of my colleagues.
Is there a way to change the attributes to a single line in AutoCAD I'm just not aware of? I tried to find different settings for the export from Inventor but the options seem to be very limited.
I could probably go over this and create separate AutoCad only titleblock and border but that would kind of defeat the purpose.
For a current assignment I have created a drawing with several property lots. I am supposed to label the lengths of the lot borders. However, I am having difficulty doing this. I would like text to appear on/above the top line of each block, but I cannot seem to find a way to get the curser to appear on the line. My first question is whether or not this is even possible. How to do this online and come up with nothing. Secondly, if it is possible to add text to a line could this text then be centered?
If this is not at all possible, what is the closest alternative method for inputting text on a line that is centered between the lot corners?
The text"shower"is overlap with the line, how can I erase the line around the text.

I am using AutoCad 2014
I want to paste text (numbers) into the command line as I am drawing a line.
In AutoCad 2011/2012 if I paste (CTRL+V), then the numbers in the clipboard will be pasted into the command line and all I have to do is push enter.
In AutoCad 2014 if I paste (CTRL+V), AutoCad will paste the clipboard contents as an mtext object into the drawing.
How do I change the behavior of AutoCad so that I can use "CTRL+V" in the command line?
For clarification these are the exact steps I am trying to do:
1. {type L}
2. {click a point in the drawing}
3. {type CTRL+V} // paste a number as a distance into command line
4. {type ENTER}
I know I can right click the command line and select paste. This option is unnacceptable for my use. I want to be able to CTRL+V text into the command line.
how to edit the line space distance for the dimension text. I can change the style, size and several other features. But the line space distance is the one thing I can't seem to edit. The only solution I know of and use is exploding the dimension and then the text turns to mtext and the option becomes available. But then if the section changes to a shorter/longer area, i have to go through several steps with the exploded lines. how to edit the line space distance for the annotation in the dimensions. i have also attached a pic of my issue as well.

I have a drawing file in AutoCADMap 3D 2011 consists of some administrative boundaries and city boundaries. Now I have roads of multi line style in the same drawing. When I completed the drawing I noticed there were missing intersections and I wanted all the roads to look something like the drawing shown below.
Please look into the word file thats how I wanted to do intersection in my drawing. Is it possible to do this action in one command or tool.
This is how my drawing looks like. This is how I want the drawing to be.
My question is about the criation of the mulilines using UTM and VBA.
Let's go! I have the next script:
Public Sub LinhaDuplaContinua()
Dim multiLineObj As AcadMLine
Dim Vertices(1 To 36) As Double
Vertices(1) = 547990.632012883
Vertices(2) = 9500776.33954744
[Code]..
This script add a new multi-line in the AUTOCAD.
How I configure that line in the VBA? I need create parallel lines with determinate offset and width.
I need create this type lines in determinate time:
Continuous Double Line:
______________________________
______________________________
Double Right Dashed Line
_______________________________
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Double Left Dashed Line
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_______________________________
Double Dashed Line
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
How i configure that in the VBA?
if the command line is docked and you hit F2 to bring up the text screen,
there is no word wrap.
e.g.
type (entget (car (entsel))) pick an object, and then F2 for text screen.
The result is all on one line and you can only view it by scrolling sideways.
The same happens when you list a few lines of Mtext.
If the command line is not docked there is no problem.
