View Full Version : Keep Text Justification when using the Flip Parameter

I have a DB which is basically only a leader and 4 text attributes associated with it. I have put a flip on it but I don't want the text justification to change. I want it to stay left justified. Is there a way to do that?

Is there a way to do that?yeah, don't flip the text, just the leader. (this is a left to right action were talking about, right?) you'll also want to incorporate a stretch or move action to fix the leader's proximity to the text when flipped tho.

Right now I have the flip tied to the arrow head of the leader. I guess I could change the flip location. I already have a couple move params, I could add one more to take your suggestion. I added the block if you want to take a look for any further suggestions.

Hey Steve, is this what you are after?
I added a chained point para that moves the att's then i removed the att's from the flip and added the point param, then added a linear para to adjust the length of the leader

That's it Mr. Cory! I'm new at this DB stuff, but I'm learning. I haven't used any chained parameters yet. I will have to look into them. Thank you Sir.

Not a problem, happy to help! I think there are some good ATP courses on chaining parameters by Chris N, that would be a good place to start anyway :)
