In Place Text Editor

When I double pick on a mtext in my drawing I get the full "In Line Text Editor" however when I double pick on an attribute in a block and the attribute is a mtext, I have to pick the little box at the to the right of the "Value" box. The problem is when I pick this box I only get partial 'In Line Text Editor" box.

and the answer is...............set ATTIPE to "1"

Hello Mike, that system variable change doesn't seem to do anything on my setup,

which is okay, as I don't have any problem with using the Enhanced Attribute Editor,

but I was curious to see what it did.

Good work figuring it out for yourself.

Did you use SYSVDLG to demystify it?

It is always a good place to start, in case you don't know about it.

Hi Dadgad - ATTIPE works like is says it does on my system. And I need the full "In Place Text Editor" to edit attributes that I make multiline text. Making multiline text attributes is the only way I know to make fractions stack. Using the Enhanced Attribute Editor will not edit multiline text for me. I have to pick the box to the right of the "Value" box in the Enhanced Attribute Editor which will open the "In Place Text Editor".

And I had to search out the SYSVDLG. But I have the "Express" tab now. Thanks you.
