Custom Drawing Title Scaling Issue.

Peggie
Contributor

Hello! 

 

I created a custom title block to use with my views on layouts. 

 

However, it seems to be scaling itself and not be consistent with 3.00 text I wished. May I please have some help resolving this issue. 

 

I wanted to create a title block instead of placing a text box underneath to automated safety. 

 

Please see attached a screen shot of two views on layout with the same title block and text not being the same size:

Thank you in advance! Peggy

How did you create the drawing title?

Is it just the one title or have you created 2 different ones with different sized text?

Hi Barry,

 

I created just one title. 

So you just typed some text and then selected it and "Save Selection A Library Part" > Drawing Title ?

Then you used that drawing title object in the drawing settings?

 

If so, then I just did the same and the text is a fixed size as it was saved and I can't change it.

So I am not sure why it would be different for you.

Hi Barry, 

 

yes, that's exactly what I did! I haven't had problems before doing it this way, so it's very confusing! 

 

But thank you for your help! It's very much appreciated! 

Amazing! That fixed it! 

 

Thank you very much Yves.
