May 21, 2013I have numerous MText paragraphs that I need to combine into a single piece of MText. I want the paragraphs preserved in the final piece.

Jul 3, 2013I have long used the following lisp to convert multiple single text objects into multiple mtext objects (i.e. make each text entity into separate mtext entities).
; T2M - convert individual Texts/Dtexts to individual MTexts
; modified by Xanadu - www.xanadu.cz
;
(defun C:T2M (/ ss i elist)
[Code]....
However, the mtext entity always moves position slightly (compared to the original text entity) after converting the object. better lisp that converts multiple text entities into mtext entities (which are all separate still, i.e. not joined together) without the position of the entity changing?
AutoCAD 2010 :: MTEXT Is Rotated When Try To Edit Any MTEXT
Jul 12, 2011Why 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 2010 :: Join Single Line Texts To Mtext?

how to select several lines of text and convert it to one mtext object?
AutoCAD 2010 :: MText Area - Adjust Single Line Text So That End Of Sentences Make Angle
Apr 5, 2013I use Mtext quite a bit and I am trying to convince others in the office that it's a good thing (versus single line text in long paragraphs). One of their concerns in the shape of the Mtext. For instance, when you use Mtext, you type into a nice rectangle that you can change the size of. What they have to do on occassion is instead of having a nice rectangle of text, they have to make it like a triangle. So in this case, single line text can be adjusted so that the end of the sentences make an angle.
Is there a way to do this using mtext? Or is there an lsp that will work?
AutoCAD 2010 :: Multiple Text To Mtext?
Sep 22, 2011I have a whole bunch of labels that are single line text that I want to convert to Mtext. I have been using the Express Tools TXT2MTXT command but that only works on one label at a time. If I select all the labels at once using this command it gives me one long Mtext string. Is there a way to convert all of the labels to mtext, but still maintaining individual entities?

Nov 14, 2011An engineer has produced a schematic on power tools that we used "pdf2cad" to convert to a cad file.the text has turned out screwy, as in al line of text will be broken up into 2 or more different bits of mtext, and overlapping each other by a few characters in places.
we contacted pdf2cad who are usually really useful, however the settings they suggested "optimal" didn't work. How to convert these multiple mtexts to one mtext?
AutoCad 2D :: Text 2 MText - Multiple Instances
Oct 29, 2012I discovered the TXT2MTXT command and how wonderful it is, but there is one thing missing. Is it possible to change multiple texts, but separately WITHOUT having to re-issue the command? I've experimented with some of the in command options, but unless I'm missing something, nothing seems to work.
Preferably, I would like it to work like the FILLET -> Multiple command, so I could select a group of texts, convert them then select another group etc, but the 'multiple' option in TXT2MTXT does not work in such a way.
AutoCad 2D :: Changing Font Of Multiple MText
Jul 17, 2012Is there a way to change multiple MTexts at once to a certain font? I don't have the full version, only AutoCAD LT 2013 so unfortunately I don't have the fancy express tools or lisps.
I have at least 1000 MTexts that need to be changed. This will take a long time if I have to activate each one and change them individually.

View 6 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Civil 3D :: Change Multiple Mtext To By Layer
Aug 6, 2012I have a user who inadvertently changed the text contents of an mleader from "ByLayer" to 1,255,0, which is giving us some serious issues with our plotting, as we use a .ctb file for printing. Unfortunately, this error must have occurred fairly early in the project, because it is now replicated throughout the 100 page set. The text color was changed through the mtext editor, so just changing the overall properties of the mtext or leader doesn't affect the text. The only way that I know of to correct the issue is to edit each piece of text, select the contents, and change them back to ByLayer. This is going to be a real pain.
So here is the question: Is there a way to change the color of multiple pieces of mtext, without opening each and every individually?
AutoCAD 2010 :: Changing Mtext Width Of Multiple Objects?

View 8 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD 2013 :: Does Support Multiple Lines Of Vertical Setting On Mtext
Jan 15, 2013I guess it does NOT support it because it seems that it does NOT work properly. For example, in case of multiple lines of “Horizontal” setting, it works properly like followings. But in case of multiple lines of “Vertical” setting, it does NOT work properly like followings.
Configure of “Horizontal”:
ABC
DEF
GHI
Configure of “Vertical”:
ABC DEF GHI
In my perspective, it should go downward like followings.
In my “perspective” of Vertical”:
A
B
C
D
E
F
G
H
I
We are making application software for importing DXF file from AutoCAD. If AutoCAD does not support multiple lines of vertical setting on mtex, our software also should not support it, I think. I want to know the specification for multiple lines of vertical setting of AutoCAD.

AutoCAD .NET :: Inserting MText Into DWG

The only left to do is to add the Part Number + description into this drawing. I'm really struggling on this one. I'm currently able to open the drawing and that's all. I've tried many things from examples I found on forums but it's not working. This is a sample of what I have regarding autocad in my program:

I need to find a way to add Mtext but I don't find anything that I'm able to use in my program. If any of you know a good reference, or have a sample of code.

In MS Word I can have some text that is all in one full width column, then put in a break and have a later section in multiple columns, then a break and go back to one column.
I want to do something similar in ACAD.
Here is how I want it to look.

Here is how MText does it.
