I have just noticed that object text misbehaves when exporting DWG files. I have a site plan with several objects containing text. The input for the text is generally at the centre of the object, using the following subroutine:
300: !text
fc=bd+2*it
DEFINE STYLE "stext" tf,fz,5,fc
STYLE "stext"
ADD2 a/2,b/2
ROT2 tr
TEXT2 0,0,tex
DEL 2
RETURN !---------
In Archicad this works fine but when the plan is exported as a DWG, the text for all objects appears at the origin, regardless of where the objects are placed in the plan. The other parts of the objects are in the right locations, it's just the text that gets displaced.
Great for finding the origin at a glance when you open the Autocad version of your plan, but terrible in every other respect!

Has anyone else encountered this and what can be done to fix it, or is it a bug?
TIA to anyone who can help me solve this.
cheers
