AutoCad 2D :: Annotative Text To Palette

Sep 15, 2011

I have a sample piece of annotative text that I dragged and dropped onto my tool palette. It works perfectly fine in the file I dragged and dropped from, but not in any other file. When I insert in into another file, the text is no longer annotative. I gave the text style a unique name in the file I dragged and dropped from.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Annotative Dims And Text

Aug 16, 2012

I know it is a simple thing but for the life of me I cannot make it work. I must of hit a button and messed it up.

Annotative dims and text. I have multiple view ports ranging from 1/8 to 1-1/2 inch scale in one paper space. I have noted items (in model) and need them to appear in the different scaled VP's. However, too much is showing up. All scales in all vp's are active, not just the scale of the vp.

AutoCAD Architecture :: New Annotative Text Styles?

Mar 12, 2012

When I want to establish a new annotative text style, and I'm in the Text Styles dialog box, in the "Size" box, why will it not let me enter a Paper Text Height of 3/32"???  Every time I try it defaults to either 1/16" or 1/8".  I have checked the Annotative box.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Annotative Text Style

May 23, 2011

I am really confused on an Annotative Text style issue. I have a blank drawing and i need to set up an annotative text, dimension and multileader style. So i started with the Text Style.

Now i would like the annotative text size to be 2mm, Arial standard. However whenever i try to do this, it changes my 2mm to 3mm which is not what i am after.

Is there some limitation to the font or is this AutoCAD error or am i just trying to do something odd.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Pasting Annotative Text?

Apr 19, 2013

I am using the copy and paste clipboard option to bring text into my drawing.  The text was annotative at one scale and brought into a new dwg (model space) which had a different annotative scale.  When I brought the text in, it came in too small, so I scaled it properly.  It did not appear in the paperspace viewport, even thought it was there in model space.  I did a properties on the text and it did not allow me to change the texts annotative scale.

Aug 23, 2013

Why can I not check the Annotative Scale box for the attribute? Please see attached. The circle scales up and down but I only see the text in the 1/8" scale and but not in the 3/16" scale. The 3/16" scale is selected in the attributes scale box.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Setting Up Annotative Text?

May 16, 2012

I can set up anno text to appear for instance at 1/8" scale, but cannot get it to change for every scale, and for it to remain centered on the original position at each change in scale. I know it's something to do with how I set it up but cannot find it in "Help".

AutoCad 2D :: Annotative Text Turned To Blocks

Sep 22, 2011

I just called up a drawing I haven't worked on in a while. All the text is annotative with 2 scales, 1/8 & 1/4 and worked just fine. Now I see both scales at once, I can't get "grips" on it, it won't edit, and when I list it, it comes up as object type block "*uxxx", not text. If I explode it, it becomes text again, but as two separate notes of different sizes, and both remain visible, even though the anno scale is set for 1/8. Drawings that reference this also show both scales at once.

AutoCad :: Annotative Text And Dimensions For All Drawings

Nov 3, 2011

My boss wants me to look into using annotative text and dimensions for all our drawings. Currently, we have 15 different text and dimension styles depending on what scale we're using.

However, despite my extensive knowledge in most areas of AutoCAD, I have absolutely NO knowledge of how to use it.

AutoCad :: Update Annotative Text Within Dimensions?

Jan 4, 2012

I created all of my annotative dimensions in the wrong scale and now in layout view they are too small and can't be seen. Model space was set to 3/4" = 1'. Once I got to Layout View, I realized I did not have enough space so I needed to size down to 1/2" = 1'. How do you go about changing existing annotative dimensions to another scale? I am using 2010.

AutoCad :: Viewport Scale And Annotative Text?

Mar 16, 2012

I have successfully created one drawing using annotative dims and text - I have set my text to 1:1 scale, height = 30 in paperspace (although I don't get what this refers to when it automatically says it's 30 in modelspace too) and my viewport is 1:20 scale. It's all good, the dims and text look great, which is what I want at the end of the day, however I got there.

But, when I want to set up another detail at 1:40 scale, I can't for the life of me figure out how to make the same dim and text style appear the same size as it was for the 1:20 detail.

AutoCad :: Jumbled Annotative Text Fonts

Sep 26, 2013

We have several similar installation in our office, but I am the only one with this problem. All of the annotative text on drawings is unreadable because it is jumbled - in this case Helvetica. We have upgraded clean install from AutoCad 2010 to 2014 - no luck. We reinstalled all of the fonts in both the system and AudtoCad (TrueType and SHX files) - no luck. Changing size or scale - no luck. I have not seen this specific issue before and don't have font issues in any other program.

See attached image - typical of all text on drawing, even within blocks.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Annotative Text Scaling

Jun 11, 2013

I had started placing dimensions in a drawing before I realized that I had to change the scale of the entire drawing.So now I would like to change the annotative scale of an existing dimension style but I am not clear on how to do it.

This would be for any new dimensions that I add.They continue to appear at the old scale. All of the dimensions are correct I would just like to see the dimensioning scaled up to the proper size for the drawing.

I realize that I could just create a new style but instead would really like to know how to change what I am already using.

AutoCad 2D :: Annotative Text - Rotate On Grip Tab

Feb 18, 2011

I'm having a problem with some annotative text. The text is set to "match orientation". which is fine, except the text rotates on the grip tab on the lower left of the text instead of the insertion point.

This is how it should look with the two bits of text above each other, except matching orientation:

MODEL.jpg

This is how it does look:

VPORT.jpg

the lot number is justified to the bottom center, and the area to the top center, so in theory, they should show correctly at any orientation.

AutoCad :: Annotative Text And Dims - How To Default With Three Annoscales

Mar 16, 2012

I'm using a VLISP program to generate some drawings. That is to say that absolutely no "user input" is allowed from the moment the first line goes in until it saves the file with a new name under a different directory. The process does open up a template where we have dimstyles and text styles already defined. But none of them are annotative.

In an effort to make this process more up-to-date, I'm attempting to change all the text and dimension styles to be annotative.

There are three layout tabs in this drawing file. One for 11x17 with a viewport set at 1:16 scale, one 17x22 with a viewport set at 1" = 1'-0" scale and one 24x36 with a viewport set at 1:8 scale. I need all the objects in model space to show up in each viewport with the text and dimensions using the annotative feature so the will all have the same size text height of 1/8".

As I experiment with this, I find that I can set the Annoscale for the model at say 1:16. Then all the annotative dimensions and text created by the VLISP code have that annotative scale built-in by default. What I need is for them to also have the other two annotative scales attached to them so they will show up in all the viewports, not just the first one on the 11x17 tab which is set a 1:16 scale. Of course I can manually add these annoscales to the text and dimensions, but then that totally defeats the purpose of the automated drawing process.

I've toyed around with AnnoAutoScale but that again is a manual process and it only add the annoscales when I change the model space annoscale. I guess that perhaps after everything is drawn I could go a have the VLISP code CANNOSCALE the model space two more times for the other two annoscales. My thinking is that would automatically add the annoscales to all annotative objects in the model and thus they would then appear in the viewports.

AutoCad :: Annotative Text Annoying Manifold Display

Aug 15, 2011

Whenever a annotative dimension is selected, its text are displayed with virtually all possible scales simultaneously on the screen, blocking the view of other objects and make the screen all a mess. Have a look at the attached picture.

Is there a way to get rid of it?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Certain Annotative Text Shrinks To 1/25 Its Size In Viewport

Jul 19, 2013

This is issue arises when i have been working on a drawing for a while with multiple xref/data shortcuts. The model space text is all the correct size yet once I enter a layout the annotative text relating to 3D elements such as Alignments/Profile Station/Elevation Labels shrink to 1/25 their size. Other annotative objects such as Mtext and Multileaders are not effected. Attached are before and after pictures.

AutoCAD LT :: Annotative Text - Changing When File Is Closed And Then Opened

Jul 15, 2013

I have been a having a repeating problem with text in AutoCAD. For some reason when re-opening my file some annotative text is know magically different. Prior to closing the file my annovative text is only set to one scale and the text width is a specific size. Then when I re-open the file, the text now has 4 different scales and the width has shrunk to completely different, casing all my text to jumble and be illegible. To be more specific when I say width of text if I look in the properties window the setting "Model defined width" is different (always much smaller). This a particularly frustrating as I cannot override this setting when selecting in properties and have to stretch each text box back to size manually. I am currently using AutoCAD LT 2013.
