mekki90 Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 Regards to all. I`m new here by chance I came across this site and seek assistance from you. I am interested in how I can rotate the elevation, at least he writes when I open my situation, or something of that text is, to rotate to be below or above the line, everything is aligned not to go one at a time to rotate it just a job. Otherwise I am from Serbia, sorry if you do not write properly. here is link the situation to see what was going on and the video clip to know what worries me. If you have a lisp or trick for this please tell me:) Thanks in advance:) video : and file of my situation. http://rapidshare.com/#!download|92l32|443031886|RASKOVICE_definitivno.dwg|327 Quote

eldon Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 The trouble with surveying drawings is that each piece of text that needs to be rotated, needs to be parallel to a nearby line, and then needs to be moved up or down or sideways. Some text does not need to be rotated at all. This makes writing lisps very difficult to cater for everything, and usually the best way is to do it manually. I make use of the Polar Tracking, and in the settings, click the box for Polar Angle measurement 'Relative to last segment'. Set the Osnap to 'Endpoint'. Then I start the Rotate command by typing 'ro', then left click on the text when it says select object, and then a right click to finish selecting objects. When it says 'Specify base point', click on one end of the line that you want the text to be parallel to, and immediately, the text snaps to a parallel direction. Then, keeping the cursor along the line to ensure you have the correct rotation, a left pick finishes the command. To continue, a right pick starts the rotate command again, and so on. It is quite speedy when you get the hang of all the left and right picks on the mouse. You can rotate a whole lot of texts, and then come back to move them to the final position. Quote
