Ski_Me Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 I made some smart blocks with attributes but the text is not showing up when I go to layout. Could someone take a look and see if they know why? https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BzQGVtGg_AXreFp4cFlLYTdkdUU/edit?usp=sharing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLW210 Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 What is a smart block? Can you post the .dwg? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ski_Me Posted March 5, 2013 Author Share Posted March 5, 2013 I call them smart blocks others call them dymanic blocks. I posted a link to the drawings if you didn't see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLW210 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Site like that are blocked at work. Did you check the visibility properties of the attributes, Layers On, Off, Frozen, is color same as background, etc.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GP_ Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 ...I posted a link to the drawings if you didn't see. I sent to you a request for access, but I have not received a reply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbroada Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 I'm with SLW on this one. I am now allowed to access file sharing sites at work, and even if I could I wouldn't open a link from there anyway. I only open dwg files posted within the forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike_Taylor Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Your viewport scale is not added to the annotative scale list within the block. Change the viewport to 1:50 and the text shows up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ski_Me Posted March 5, 2013 Author Share Posted March 5, 2013 That did the trick thxs Mike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLW210 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Solved in 24 minutes after drawing posted, unsolved after 24 hours with NO drawing posted. THAT'S why we ask for drawing files! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ski_Me Posted March 5, 2013 Author Share Posted March 5, 2013 I normally don't partake in forums cause it seems everybody turns into a troll but this one everybody is willing to help out. So I never really learned how to post drawings. Never really thought I needed to until now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use the "Go Advanced" at lower right of reply box and the "Manage Attachments". Glad you got it sorted. My comment was in general to the reluctance of people to post a drawing or even a screen shot, was not particularly directed at you, at least you provided a link of sorts.
