AutoCAD .NET :: Creating Mtext Object With Annotative TextStyle
Sep 25, 2012
I am trying to create a Mtext object with an annotative TextStyle. I make the textstyle current (which I don't know if is exactly the same as changing the TextStyleId of the mtext object) and create the MText. The problem which I encounter is that the newly crated MText Object has textheight as the textstyle's paper space text height, instead of scaling the text height by the annotative scale, as when you create the Mtext using Autocad menu.

I have been able to turn on the annotation for the Mtext, which applies the current annotative scale, but how do I add additional scales to the Mtext object.
ObjMText.Annotative = AnnotativeStates.True

After closing and re-opening my drawing, my annotative mtext is moving, and shrinking. When I click on the text, the properties say annotative is set to NO. I reset it to YES and fix it, but once I close it and re-open its screwed up again, and annotation is set back to NO.

My annotative mtext is invisible in model space? Completely visible and correct when viewed from paperspace via a viewport, but nothing in model space. It is there! i can window select it in model space and see it.... ?
I read that copying into a new drawaing will fix this. And it did! But now, it is gone again? Not sure what command or action i took to do this but i haven't done anything out of the ordinary?
It is annotative mtext, my non-annotative mtext is still there but it is also masked.

I have annotative mtext that keeps changing width and location. See pic. When gripped, they're in the correct location but wrong scale. I experienced this on a few drawings with C3d 2010 and now 2011.

I just loaded AutoCAD 2012 on Friday and have noticed that when I use annotative text or mtext in paper space when printing or previewing the text it rotates 90 degrees to vertical, but is horizontal in the drawing. Only does this with annotative text or mtext, non annotative text and mtext remains horizontal when previewing or printing.

When preparing surveys i often use the annotative labels and tables available in Civil 3d. I am familiar with modifying label & table styles, but i have not yet been able to figure out how i can add a column to my table that contains fillable text. Because of that i am forced to create a table and then add text in paper space adjacent to or over the top of it.

I have been making blocks Annotative by using block Editor. I would open block Editor and change the block property to annotative. When I do that I notice that the block's attributes become unreadable. The block's attribute appears to become so squished up the I can't read it. I have tried to change the attributes width to make it readable but that does not work.

I am having trouble creating 3D text using the mtext->txtexp->extrude method. In particular, the number "4" breaks the extrude, which returns:
Command: extrude
Current wire frame density: ISOLINES=8, Closed profiles creation mode = Solid
26 found
Cannot sweep or extrude a self-intersecting curve.
1 object removed from selection set.
I have tried most of the available True-Type fonts, for the text but all give the same error. I can edit the polyline generated by txtexp by hand to remove the problem, but I am trying to automate the process. How to get this to work?

There are obvious reasons to limit the number of annotative scales while your drafting. I don't know that I'm aware of what file errors/issues can come about from using annotative scales. I've read where you should clean up the scales in your drawing but I'm not sure why?

I'm using AutoCAD 2010 and I tried creating an annotative dimension but it won't show up in my viewport unless ANNOALLVISIBLE is set to 1. Both my annotative and viewport scale are set to 1/8"=1'-0".

I'm having an issue with creating a column bubble block that would have an attribute and both be annotative.
I've created a 3/8" dia circle with 3/16" text and the text is NOT annotative. The bottom of the circle is at 0,0 with the text justification at MC
I create the block of the circle and text and make it annotative and save
When I insert it into another drawing, the block inserts properly and scales as desired. The issue is when inserted, I'm NOT given the option to fill in the column # attribute. I can double click and enter text, but this should happen during insertion.
When I create the block, if I do NOT select the attribute as part of the block, I am given the option for the attribute during insertion but it does not scale automatically.
What am I doing wrong? I'm attaching my block as an example.

I am inserting hyperlinks in an mtext object using the following commands:
1. Within the mtext box, right click and select "insert field"
2. Choose "linked"
3. Choose "Hyperlink"
4. Type in the web address in the box to allow autodesk to load the website
5. Choose "insert link"
6. Modified "text to display"
7. Exit text editor.
When I exit the text editor, the program crashes.

C3D 2013.Is there a way to search the C3D styles for references to textstyles?
IOW - I know there are references to a certain textstyle in this drawing, how to find it/them without manually inspecting each style?

Why the texts that have the same "Textstyle" don’t change as the settings of the style change?
For example, suppose that particular texts have the T1 as text style. Then why if we change the value of “paper text height” of the T1 then the texts (that belong to this style) don’t respond?
At the same time, this behavior is valid pertaining the dimension style, i.e, if we change the text height of the dimension style then the dimension text responds and is changed!

Using C3d 2013.
Where do I find the PI data of an alignment object to plug into a mtext Field?
Field Category and Field Name and any other steps to locating it would be useful.

I am running Autocad arch 2011 (as Autocad 2011) and a co worker is using Autocad electrical 2012 and when he works in a drawing of mine the every annotative scale that is used in the file is attached to every annotative object. Which means I have to go through every object and delete scales that should be be there....all my annotative objects appear in every view port because every annotative object has every scale..

I have a co-worker who needs to create a block where the attributes scale with the anno scale, but the block container does not. He's creating a tree block and wants the canopy and trunk attributes to scale without scaling the tree symbol.
Making an attribute annotative and applying the scales to the attributes doesn't seem to work if the block itself isn't annotative.
Are we missing something, or is this just not possible?

Is there any trick that bring in an annotative block into a drawing at the annotative scale you are working in, not the scale the block was created in?

Whenever I insert a block into my drawing from the Tool Palette, Autocad creates a Text Style and Dimension Style,both named Annotative. This happens on any drawing, with any block.
I can purge them after the block has been inserted. They are NOT nested in the blocks. I have tried recreated the tool. Nothing seems to be working.

Why is this happening?
The dwg was fine, then it crashed while changing from modle space to paper space...
When i recovered the dwg, EVERY MTEXT I try to edit becomes rotated vertically and stays that way when i close the edit box...
I do not recall hitting any buttons or making any keystrokes without my knowing...
Is there a way to get my text back to Horizontal and stay that way?
I tried setting the MTEXTFIXED to: 0, 1 & 2.
NONE of these options changed anything.
I NEED to have this fixed. more importantly, i need to know why this is happening sop that i can take steps to prevent this happening in the future...
I am currently working with the latest CAD available.

I have numerous MText paragraphs that I need to combine into a single piece of MText. I want the paragraphs preserved in the final piece. I've found some routines that can combine pieces of MText but I don't know if they preserve the paragraphs.I have DotSoft Toolpac but it doesn't seem up to the task. C

I would like to find a lisp that changes the scale of something that has an annotative scale and deletes all other scales in the object scale list. Often i have many different scales of existing dimensions or objects. i waste a lot of time opening the annotation object scale dialogue box, selecting add, finding my scale and deleting the old scale.

I have attached the block for reference. Now that I have found the error of my way with the annotative cutline. I have a slab-on-grade block that needs to have annotative hatches; I also need the cutline to be annotative and dynamic so that as the drawing scale changes the scale of the cutline will be match and I can adjust the length of the extension lines. I have made the cutline a nested annotative and dynamic block within the slab-on-grade block. When I insert the block into my drawing the cutline is annotative and the dynamic grips show up but they do not work.
