I use the Pen tool to draw a line , Text tool to type around the line, but I run into a little circle with an x in the middle (tiny) and the text stops there. I hold option key I can drag that little circle.
View 4 Replieswhen entering text, mega spaces seem to be a default between lines of text. Changing the leading does nothing to correct this. Thinking that my software became corrupted, I deactivated and reinstalled. But the problem persists. If I type the text into Word, cut and paste into PSE10, the problem continues.

I am often using text within AutoCAD 2012. Here is what I do, look at the attachments:
1. Create the text using the mtext tool
2. Explode the text using the txtexp tool
But, when I explode the text, lines appear inside the text like in the image. I then have to explode the whole thing and delete these lines manually. Any tool or add-on to get around this annoyance every time I insert text.

break apart a pice of text to single lines?
In Photoshop CS6 the flashing type cursor cuts through several lines of text (see image).
This makes it hard to select text since it is hard to tell which line the cursor will select (see image).
Can the text cursor be resized? This happens no matter what type size is used or what paragraph settings are selected. I am using Windows 7 professional, service pack 1 on a Dell Precision T3500 with 8.0 GB RAM.
How do I create multiple lines of text in a single layer. Everytime I finish with a line and want to go to the next, I hit 'Enter', but that completes the text. If I click on the layer image again, then it creates another layer.
So basically if I have 10 lines of text, I end up with 10 layers of text as well. Needless to say, this becomes to much trouble if I have to center each line of text and add blending options to 10 layers instead of one.
I designed back side of a business card with Arial font, When I printed cards I got horizontal little lines on besides and under text lines. On computer monitor it was only showing clear text in Enhanced view mode. When I changed view mode to Wireframe, then these lines shows on screen also. I only have text on this file, no background or any other object. I tried to change the font to other font types including Tru Type fonts also, but problem remained same.
I never had this problem with X5.
I have a long text (using special true type fonts) exploded using the express tools. Problem is that, for example, an "O" became made by a lot of straight lines. So my file becomes heavy weight, and that file has tube cut using a laser. So how can I simplify that text/lines?

I've been customizing acad.lin like a maniac for the last couple of days and there's a recurring problem that I can't resolve by myself.I have this line...
*EX-DASH,[G] Existing - - EX - - - - EX - - - - EX - -
A,.125,-.0625,0.127,-.254,["EX",STANDARD,S=.127,U=0,X=-.127,Y=-.0635],-.2,.125,-.0625,.125,-.0625
The result is similar to...
- - EX - - - - EX - - - - EX - - - - EX - - - - EX - - - - EX - -
Let's say that the pattern of the line ("- - EX - -", because that's the part that's being repeated) takes 50 units to display at a given scale. I draw a PLINE and one section of the line is like 75 units long. If the line I'm drawing can't contain the pattern of my custom line, it won't display correctly. Given these numbers, the pattern would only display right once (75 / 50 = 1.5).
I get that and it's ok. HOWEVER, one thing I don't get is why autocad displays the pattern once and then fill the rest with a continuous line. It's okay for all my continuous custom lines with text because it keeps the same base line and it feels transparent (and it's also the reason I never realized it was reacting this way until I started working with dashed lines).
Example: I want to display "- - EX - - - - EX - -" but would only have space for "- - EX - - - - E". Acad will display "- - EX - -" once + continuous line for the remaining space.
I know that if there's no space to fit a second "EX" it can't be displayed, and that's all right, but how come it doesn't fill the rest of my line with dashes instead of a continuous line? With PLINEs, every time I turn a corner, I get this continuous line segment on each corner before it starts displaying the dashes (because I can't always draw lines that fits perfectly the pattern).
How to force it to display dashes when there's not enough space to repeat the pattern one last time?
I have some text in vanilla Autocad 2014 that is showing up as dashed lines
