I need some help, i am trying to make a label for a line at a N 87d E angle, I want the text to be the same angle as the line. How do I do that?

Rotate the text, just select a couple points on the line.

 

Express>Text>Rotate Text if you just want to do it that way.

Hi! There is a nifty LISP routine I once found (not made by me) which I have been using quite a lot myself. Just ap-it type mtr, pick 2 reference points on the angled line and click your text. Works the same way on blocks as well. :wink: hope that is what you were looking for.

Although I'm late to the party, you can also ROTATE the text using the parallel OSNAP, or Rotate with the [R]eference option.
