    Default dynamic block alignment changes when flipped

    Hi all,

    I have created an elevation dynamic block that has a flip action. when I use the flip action or if I mirror the block the left/right alignment gets messed up. If you edit the attribute the alignment will change and if you explode the block after flipping you can see how the alignment has changed. My question is how can I keep the text alignment correct when I flip or mirror the block. block is attached.

    thanks,

    Kevin

    Here is the interesting thing. When I first looked at the drawing I noticed that the block inside of CAD was in its flipped state. Open up the block inside of the block editor and its in its non-flipped state. Not sure why that is.

    When I changed the attributes in the Flipped state, I got the same results as you. The text shifted over. So I reopened the drawing and flipped the block to its non-flipped state. When I edited the attribute, the text held its location. When I flipped or mirrored the block, the text held its location.

    Thats where I got to. Still gonna look into it more but figured I'd let you know what I saw.
