scully Posted January 25, 2001 Share Posted January 25, 2001 Is it possible to set text linked to symbols to always be drawn horizontal i.e. if the symbol is rotated the text still reads left to right? thanks ds Quote Link to comment

Guest Posted February 27, 2003 Share Posted February 27, 2003 I'm sure there is a way to get this to happen when using VectorScript. The ID tool and other tools have right reading options in the OIP. I'm sure with some good grease and a vector script book it can be done. You may want to post it at the VS forum section or by emailing vs_support@nemetschek.net. Quote Link to comment
jfmarch Posted February 27, 2003 Share Posted February 27, 2003 It already exists. In VW preferences under Display check the button for "Adjust Flipped Text". Works great for us.... Quote Link to comment
dholcomb Posted February 28, 2003 Share Posted February 28, 2003 Close Jim I've used the "Adjust Flipped Text" option, and I love it. However, while it will flip text on a mirrored symbol, or a 180? inserted symbol, and they look great, if the symbol is at an odd angle, say 33? or even 90? then the text will read left to right within the symbol, but at an angle with respect to the page. Vectorscript, huh Katie? never tried that. sounds scary. I'll dip my toes in that water tentatively though. Wish me luck. Thanks. David Quote Link to comment
Petri Posted March 1, 2003 Share Posted March 1, 2003 No, not even with VectorScript as long as we are talking about symbols. PIOs are an entirely different pot of tofu. Quote Link to comment
