drennich Posted October 19, 2016 Posted October 19, 2016 Full AutoCAD 2011. When inserting Obsolete Block the word Obsolete comes in oblique 28 degees, but all the other text remains correct. When opening block as a regular file all text comes in fine. This is only happening to me and not the other drafters. Am I missing a setting somewhere? Quote
BIGAL Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 Check your text "Styles" you may have a block with two different text styles. Explode and have a look. Quote
RobDraw Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 Post the block and a stripped down file that makes the text oblique. Quote
drennich Posted October 20, 2016 Author Posted October 20, 2016 Checked Text Styles and even though they are different, changing them had no effect on the word Obsolete being normal instead of oblique. Only way to change is to insert the block into the drawing and then go into Block Editor and change text under Text Editor/Formatting/Oblique Angle to zero. Quote
RobDraw Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 If you post the files, an answer will be forthcoming rather quickly. Quote
drennich Posted October 20, 2016 Author Posted October 20, 2016 I guess I don't know what you mean by "post the files". Could you please go into detail? Thanks. Quote
RobDraw Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 Upload them to the forum so that we can look at them. Quote
drennich Posted October 20, 2016 Author Posted October 20, 2016 Unfortunately I'm a government contractor and can't go about posting government files on a public forum. That would be the way to go otherwise though. Quote
RobDraw Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 I did say to post the block and a stripped down version of the file that it is happening in. We don't need to see any project or design information. If you can't do that, you are going to have to provide a lot more information for us to replicate the problem. Quote
