MText changes vertical position when adding characters

[MacBinary]

Hi

I have noticed a small annoying behavior of autocad when adding certain characters to an MText object.

For example, if I have MText containing "hello" it will be at a different vertical position to MText containing "hello/". Autocad changes the vertical placement when adding characters it seems, possibly to avoid clashing.

Is there anyway to suppress the auto adjustment autocad makes to the vertical placement to accommodate these characters? I have the text elements spaced suitably from the line to avoid clashes but some wire numbers have characters and some don't, so it leaves the drawing looking somewhat messy. (see below)

Currently i have to adjust each wire number containing characters so it sits at the right vertical placement.

Thanks in advance.

Try the paragraph formatting dialog in the Mtext editor. There's an option to set the Paragraph Line Spacing to an exact amount. You'll have to experiment with the right spacing, but that may solve your problem.
