How do I set it so that when I type fractions in a text box it automatically keeps them as non-stacked fractions rather than horizontally or diagonally stacked?
View 2 RepliesWhen using RomanS, how do you stack fractions in single line text? AutoCad will do it automatically in multiline text but I am having trouble in single line text.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to use diagnol fractions in my label text for 1/2 and 1/4 deltas. It displays and seems to work fine in Autocad, but when I plot, the numbers have trouble displaying themselves.
I'm using a light color from our .ctb, so I thought that was the problem, but that doesn't seem to be the case (I tried two heavier lineweights and it only got worse). Increasing the percentage size of the fraction also has no effect.
My Inventor's playing with me... When I use Leader text and type a fraction, a message box pops up asking me if I want to stack the fractions. I don't, which has always been the default, so I just hit "Enter". Suddenly, it's decided to go ahead and stack them, and now the box does not come up, so I can't tell it not to. Where do I choke it to get it back to not stacking the fractions, or at least give me the option box?? R2010, S.P.0.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if there is a way to convert many regular fractions to stacked fractions without editing each one. I have a file full of fractions that all need to be stacked. It seems it would be quicker if I could select all the fractions and stack them at once rather then edit each one individually.Â

View 1 Replies View RelatedIn the dragged state, I don't want to use 'As Composed' because the label is composed to be parallel to the line, but I want it to flip to horizontal to the view when dragged. Â This is working fine with 'Stacked Text'
What is not working is the text justification. Â I want it to remain centre justified, as it is composed. Â But there doesn't seem to be any option for this when you use the 'Stacked Text' option for the dragged state. Â I thought that setting the 'Leader Justification' to false might do it, but that just makes it always left justified. Â Am I missing something here? Â Is there no 'Top right/bottom right/middle center/top left.....' option for Stacked Text? Â And if not, why not?

I am a rookie so please be easy on me. I have been having a problem with entering fractions into simple text. Sometimes the fraction downsizes itself to the height of the other text, as I would like it to, and sometimes it doesn't. See example below, what am I doing wrong?

I am trying to get any stacked text in my illustrator file that is a single frames such as with carriage returns such as:

Is there a split command I can use?

Im thinking it would start by finding all the textframes that have carriage returns is the carriage return identified as " "

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen I am typing out text and get to a fraction is allows me to stack it diagonally so the 1/4" looks nicer. When i dimension, however, it does not seem to stack the fractions the same way. I took a look at the Format - Dimension setting and did not see the option in there to change it. I would like to have the fractions stack diagonally like they do regular text.

when i type a fraction in a label the fraction is alwas stacked i have to unstack the fraction but when i unstake the fraction the fraction show up like this 1 1#2. any thoughts about how to fix this? this only happens on one computer when a different user use that same drawing the fraction always show up unstaked 1 1/2.

I need to show fractions on my drawings rather than descimals.Â
I have gone into the style manager and have units in inches
I have linear format in diagonal fractions
I have precision at 1/16
I have also made several other changes to centerline color and hidden lines color etc.
I choose save
I choose done
On the drawing, the color changes are made but the dimension still reads in descimals.
How do I get fractions to be applied to the dims on the drawing?
I need
(distof "..")Â
and
(rtos ..)
as a prompt (VB window or command line).

or

same as:

"1'-3 1/8""
and
Command: (distof "1'-3 1/8")

but instead of typing (...) I want pop-up texbox for input, or just simple input: 3/5" in command line to get 0.6 .
