In-Depth Information
This prompt doesn't appear if you're using a text style with a
fixed
(that
is, nonzero) height. See the “Simply stylish text” section, earlier in this chapter, for
information about fixed versus variable text heights.
AutoCAD prompts you for the text rotation angle:
Specify rotation angle of text <0>:
7. Specify the text rotation angle by typing the rotation angle and pressing Enter or
by rotating the line on-screen with the mouse.
AutoCAD prompts you to type the text.
8. Type the first line of text and press Enter.
9. Type additional lines of text, pressing Enter at the end of each line.
Figure 13-2 shows text appearing on-screen as you type it (or it would if this topic
had animated pages).
10. To stop entering text and return to the command prompt, press Enter at the
start of a blank line.
AutoCAD adds the new single-line text object — or objects, if you typed more than
one line — to the drawing.
Figure 13-2:
Single-line text appears letter by letter.
