Text Format as part of Class attributes

[Keith Hadland]

Any thoughts on enabling a text format to be specified as part of class attributes, along with the existing line, fill and texture?

That would speed up things like using different text styles for dimensions, plant tags & drawing annotations. Yes, I know it's something that's relatively simple to change after the fact but so are class textures, fills & line styles...

that's one I really want to see. It's so easy to work with classes and never have to think of 'What color is this?' or 'What linestyles is needed for this kind of object?'.

If text options can be defined by class, it will be great.

This would help with Viewport Overrides. I often do a 'sketch' version of a viewport and would like to amend the font to (the much-maligned) Comic Sans, just for that viewport. This is easy for the annotation-layer, but not for design-layer text. Font by Class would open up this possibility.

Has been wishlisted here and elsewhere right after Noah's Ark shipwrecked. Obviously markers of lines are a higher priority.

Anyway, text format should also be a part of a dimension standard, as at least I submitted right after a quite jolly tea break with Abraham & Sarah at Mamre.

I would also like to see this feature implemented. It would be invaluable.

This would be GREAT.
