B.Alves Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 I would like to know why is that when i use the Textmask command, my text scales by 20x . Why can't my text height remain at its default height??? Can anyone enlighten me on this subject? Thx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just tried this out and my text stays the same size.!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B.Alves Posted December 3, 2008 Author Share Posted December 3, 2008 I'm using Autocad 2009. When I type Textmask, it asks me to select my objects, once I select an Mtext window, for example, and I press enter, the text automatically scales by 20 times. My masktype is wipeout and the offset i want is .25. I notice that my annotation scale right now is at 1:20, would that have anything to do with it.

lpseifert Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 You may want to consider using Background Mask instead of Textmask for Mtext. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B.Alves Posted December 3, 2008 Author Share Posted December 3, 2008 I just tried Background mask and it works better than Textmask. Thanks a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
