Text 2 MText Upgraded

[alanjt]

Many thanks Alan,

 

I shall implement those changes momentarily

 

No problem. I hadn't given this a look and I thought I'd give it a go.

I'm glad you like it

I was converting some text objects from a file (provided by client) and it made me think of your routine.

I have updated the first post to Version 1.8, this should hopefully fix the UCS errors and text rotation issues.

 

Thanks,

 

Lee

First thanks for this routine

- Can I control the distance between lines?

- Does the lisp keep the text angle?

- Mtext not moving with mouse when change UCS

The lisp rotate the text to 0 angle

[Lee Mac]

- Can I control the distance between lines?

 

I believe this is controlled using: TSPACEFAC

 

- Does the lisp keep the text angle?

 

It will keep the angle of the first text selected.

 

- Mtext not moving with mouse when change UCS

 

The latest version should fix all UCS issues, what is your UCS set to?

Thanks LEE

 

I was using V-1.7

 

Could one of these lines has the version

The filename has the version - I wanted to keep all my programs consistent.

 

Its funny that the characters look different on your system

[asos2000]

whats the characters looks on your system?

[asos2000]

Its printscreen

On mine;

Language package differences.

Oh, it could also be that I might have changed my command line font...

Possibly (that looks like the standard one though).

Hi Lee - I really like this, and I can see myself using it in preference to the Express Tools version. The only thing I prefer about the Express Tools version though is the ability to select text with a crossing box rather than picking each bit of text exactly. This also allows you to select more than one bit of text at a time. Does that make sense?

[Lee Mac]

Hi Rooster - I'll try to incorporate something similar in a later version - it might take a bit of work though...

[Rooster]

Fantastic! I will look forward to that

[Lee Mac]

Try the updated code - its not perfect, but its the best I could do for the minute SelectionSet isn't available until after the first pick.

[Rooster]

thanks as ever, lee - this will come in really handy

[Lee Mac]

Glad you find it useful
