Suddenly, I must have hit something, all new text added to my drawing when using Multi-line mode is Upside down. When using single line mode new text is backward. When looking at the properties the text is NOT shown as upside down or backward and my text style is set to Standard and has not changed. This problem is isolated to the current drawing. If I open a new drawing text is entered correctly.

View 3 Replies View Relatedi was asked to assist with plotting some coordinated on a drawing, the catch is i need to re orientate the UCS with Y+ at the top of the screen, X+ to the right, Y- to the bottom and X- to the left..
I managed to get this part right, that was the easy part.....
However when i went to put any Dimension or even Text on the drawing it was Backwards and Upside Down.
I have added a small screenshot for reference ....
Occasionally the text is upside down in tables (mirrored, not 180 degrees). This seems to mostly happen after I copy another table and edit the information. The mirrored text actually is hidden until you double click the cell to edit it. Now, after playing around with one of these cases I can't even select the text at all, it is completely hidden and I can't type anything in the cell.

Text nexer is visible on the photo Background image. If the edited image is saved, the added typed text is not saved; only the original Background image. How do I reset the Text Tool so it will be functional?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI think I may have made a big error. While adding text and applying (experimenting) various "Effects" with the text, I used the garbage can icon to remove the "Effect", thinking it is going to remove the 'Effect" from the text, until I realized I had to remove the "Effect" with the edit button, not the garbage can. Have I now permanently removed the various "Effects" permanently or just off the screen? How do I regain them back onto the menu column? How many "Effects" should be visible in order to have the complete set? This was my first experiment with the lettering effects and hope I haven't lost them forever.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have yet another question. I can see the text in a text frame with a script like this,
var doc = app.activeDocument;
var myTextFrames = doc.textFrames[0];
var myTF_Content = myTextFrames.contents; // this will return the string inside the text frame
alert(myTF_Content);
but how do I add some text to the beginning of that text? lets say that this is my textFrame[0] = "this is a simple test string".what is the proper way to add text like the number one and a period to the beginning?
I am trying to place pictures into my paragraph text so that the text wraps around the picture (like you can in Word).? Can anyone let me know how to do this in Photoshop 7.0 for Windows??
All I can find is how to wrap text around object (i.e. word on a coffee cup image itself) or putting the actual picture as fill for the font.?
how to do this? I have included a PDF of a sample of what I'm trying to do.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have recently run across an odd issue when adding text to a drawing in Civil 3D. The problem comes with creating a new text item in an existing drawing. In this drawing, if I insert a text object, Civil freezes up for several minutes. Once it is un-frozen, the text pops up as it should and everything works as normal. This happens for both single line and multi line text, with any of my text styles, and across all layers that I have tried. Other regular drawing objects do not cause any problems, and there are also no problems editing any existing text objects.
To troubleshoot, I have created new drawings and added text, but they do not have problems. I have also opened other existing drawings, but no problems with those either. I am worried that the drawing file may be corrupted, but audits and recovers don't show ay errors, and I have purged out everything not in use.
The strangest part is that if I open the same drawing in Map 3D, I have the same text insertion problems, but when I open it in plain CAD or in Raster Design, the text will insert with no problems.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI was adding text and leaders to a drawing and after the text was entered I pushed the escape key. It then asked me if I want to save my text. It also had a check box asking me if I always want to perform that so it wouldn't keep popping up with that question. Well, I had checked that I didn't want the text and I also checked the box to always perform that answer. And now it won't save any text that I write. It just keeps the leader. How can I get the text to stay and undo the box that I checked to always answer that way (to not keep text)?

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen I insert text with either the TEXT command or MTEXT command, the text is displayed mirrored. This doesn't seem to have anything to do with the MIRRTEXT variable because that is used when I'm actually mirroring the text. In my case, the text is mirrored as soon as I insert it. How can I get it back to normal? Is there a variable I'm missing?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a question about Radial dimensions... I am trying to add a piece of text (TYP.) to a Radial Dimension... When I add the text; it makes the text and dim line move further from the arrowhead (see image)
I want to be able to move the text on the dimension closer to the arrowhead without actually exploding it... my current solution is to separate the text (TYP.) from the dimension (see image)
Is there a variable or setting to shorten the length of the dim line on the dimension?
I find the 3D side of the software is great for modeling. But when it comes to the 2D drawing side of it, especially dimensioning and the adding of text label is very poor, when compared again other CAD packages including AutoCad Mechanical and LT.
Why is it not on par with AutoDesk other 2D packages!

What I am attempting to do is: add text, some dims., and some info. to a viewport i have added to a drawing for my field guys. I am a sheet metal worker and have produced a drawing of duct work. one viewport is a plan view, one is a swiso, and another is a left-elevation view. everything is good except the left-elevation view which I would like to add details to. I am assuming I need to change the ucs so that i can place lines, dims and text and get them to show up without them snapping to 0 z.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to add English text to an Italian comic I've scanned. I scanned the pages at 600 DPI, saved them as PNGs, then reduced the size of the images to 19 percent of the original scans.
when I try to add English text to the dialogue balloons, the text remains the same size as it was in the full-size image, even though I've set the character size to 8 points in the character options box. The only way I know of to get around this is to add the text to the full-size image, which is a cumbersome, time-consuming process, or reduce the character size to something like 1.5 points, which produces roughly the text size I'm after.

When I export it in a PDF file and open it up all the text is super small and sometimes not in the same place I typed it. When we print them out they need to be 36x24 so the writing needs to be somewhat big and in the right place. I am sure it is just user error!
