Modify Texts (2-D)

2-D Dimensioning + Text > Edit

The Edit function group of the 2-D Dimensioning+Text tab contains functions for the moving, copying and changing of dimensioning texts.

 

Function Description
Move text, via 2 points
Enables you to define, via specification of 2 points, a distance by which the previously identified and copied text will be moved.
  • Individual,
  • In rectangle,
  • Part,
  • All.

The scaling factor is entered in the pocket calculator dialogue that appears upon selection of the function.

Please note:

If a DWG file is read in with a 1:1 scale, and the scale is subsequently changed to 1:20, the texts will not be scaled as well. You can use this function to adjust the text height.

If you fit an existing text between a start point and an end point, it is compressed or stretched horizontally.

Please note:

The fitting of texts is not possible for TrueType text fonts and texts with leader lines.

  1. Change the parameters and click OK to exit the editor.
  2. Then identify the texts to be changed.

This function changes the parameters of an existing text in line with a reference text. First choose the identification type, then the reference line and finally the text to be corrected.
