    Posted: 05.Jun.2023 at 10:46
Hi CAD Forum,

I'm currently updating my companies block library into dynamic blocks and I need some help with the following.

Is there a way for the base point of Mtext/attributed text to automatically adjust when an object is rotated? 

I want the text to stay 1mm away from the block at all times, I'm currently working on a luminaire block and its default position is horizontal and the text has a base point of top center. When I rotate the block to vertical I want the base point of the text to change to middle right or middle left for example so its still 1mm away from the block. I have sorted the chain actions part so the text still follows the block at the correct orientation, but I cant find a way for the text to auto adjust its base point as the blocks rotates. Is this even possible?

Any help or advice will be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

AutoCAD does not have a unique feature to rotate text automatically.
Stay curious and keep exploring

You can make it by Arctext command Firstly Enter the command then choose the right path check annotation text style etc.
It may help you.
