What are you asking?

[sgrant]

text and dimensions that i can put in my dim and text styles. So if i put a text in the text style as 1.50 it will print at saled 1:50 in my viewport. Do i make sense?

[sgrant]

Have I still confused u?

[Cad64]

Are you asking about annotative dimensions and text?

I don't think those were available in Autocad 2007.

[sgrant]

If you go to Format text style or dimension style, and go to style name you have a standard text/ dimension. I want preset dim and text styles you can use for text/ dimension at various scales as shown above. e.g if you set it to 1:50 and then insert text it should be at the correct height so the drawing can be printed with correct height.

[Cad64]

So are you asking how to create Text styles and Dimension styles? Or are you looking for some automatic way to change text height according to viewport scale? I still don't understand what you're asking for?

[sgrant]

Is there a automatic way to change text height according to viewport scale?

[Cad64]

Not in 2007.

I believe annotation scaling first became available in 2008.

[sgrant]

Maybe I am not explaining properly

Text height should be set a zero.

Then dimscale will control your text height (the reciprical of your viewport scale).

You need to set each of your desired dimscale standards dimstyles in your template - then select dimstyle as appropriate.

This works as far back as I can remember and doesn't require use of later annotative dimensions as mentioned in this thread.

 

Post what you have so far with your *.dwt file if you can't figure it out.
