neko Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 has anyone else had problems with annotative text in autocad, where it just blows up enormously in size after you save the drawing or open it up again ? or maybe the better question is, does anyone know how to solve this ??? annotative scale is a great new feature for 2008, but it seems to have some bugs. i've installed the service patch and that hasn't helped. any help much appreciated ! paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neko Posted February 6, 2008 Author Share Posted February 6, 2008 nobody, eh ? i've searched everywhere for an answer (autodesk, AUGI, google) and it seems to be just an internal problem then. i can't find anything on the subject that would lead me to a solution. i'd still appreciate any thoughts.....

neko Posted February 6, 2008 Author Share Posted February 6, 2008 woo hoo ! 250 posts..... just in case anyone was interested, it was a curious problem created by the network setup at my institution......something to do with novell and certain rights for students. it is a real problem, but not exactly autocad.

eta_zu Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 Hello. We experience a lot of weird things in our new autocad 2008 aswell and i'm trying everything to fix them, so I am very interested in what kind of network issue did you actually have? Thank you.

neko Posted February 27, 2008 Author Share Posted February 27, 2008 actually, i'm not entirely convinced that it doesn't have something to do with autocad since i experience the problem of dim leader text blowing up in size at home as well. it only happens with annotative dimension styles and just when you save the drawing. i've done a lot of research, but can't believe that i'm the only one who has seen this problem. if i use non-annotative text in the annotative dimension style, it still does it. only if i revert back to the pre-2008 concept of dimscale does it behave properly. what sort of issues are you having specifically ? maybe i can help.

fisher10x Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 So we've been having that problem at our office too. Our cad manager has been talking with autodesk and not really getting no where. But I stumbled upon a quick trick that will get the text to revert back to its normal size. Once you open the drawing, just undo everything (ctrl z). I don't know what going on when Autocad starts up or why it is doing this, but this seemed to work for me, and its a quick fix. I know how frustrating this problem can be, so i hope this helps!
