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.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Annotative Mtext Is Moving And Shrinking

Feb 13, 2012

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.

AutoCad 2D :: Annotative Mtext Disappearing In Model Space

Jun 25, 2012

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.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Annotative Mtext And Text Rotates In Preview And Plotting?

May 2, 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.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Adding Fillable Or MTEXT To Annotative Segment Table

Dec 5, 2013

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.

AutoCad :: Creating Annotative Blocks With Attributes

Oct 7, 2011

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.

AutoCad 3D :: Creating 3D Text Using MText

Jun 19, 2011

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?

AutoCAD Architecture :: Too Many Annotative Object Scales?

Nov 13, 2012

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?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Creating Column Bubble Block That Have Attribute And Both Be Annotative

Sep 22, 2011

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.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Why Texts That Have Same Textstyle Don’t Change

Feb 15, 2012

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!

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..

AutoCAD 2010 :: Annotative Attributes In NON-Annotative Block

Feb 7, 2013

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?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Dimstyle And Textstyle Created When Inserting Block From Tool Palette

Nov 5, 2013

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.

AutoCAD 2010 :: MTEXT Is Rotated When Try To Edit Any MTEXT

Jul 12, 2011

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.

AutoCad :: Nest Annotative / Dynamic Block Inside Non-annotative Block?

Sep 23, 2011

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.
