Hello!
I'm not is if my post is in the right place, so (to moderators :) ) please move it to a "better place" if there is one ;)

I have created line type with text "Existing 11kV OHL".
Unfortunately when my line "bends" text is straight (please see attachment).
Is there a way for the text to follow the line?

Many thank for help!

the text will never follow a bend when that bend occurs in the middle of the text string. what you can do is turn off "Linetype "Generation", and then the text will only apear if the straight line segment is long enough.

one of many limitations in autodesk's 1980's version of linetypes....

Please load it after making the following style.

; Textstyle ; AA
; Font ; isocp.shx


*sample, Existing 11kV OHL
A,.5,["Ex",AA,s=.1,x=-.07,y=.02],.11,["is",AA,s=.1,x=-.04,y=.02],.11,["ti",AA,s=.1,x=-.05,y=.02],.11,["ng",AA,s=.1,x=-.07,y=.02],.17,["11",AA,s=.1,x=-.06,y=.02],.11,["kV",AA,s=.1,x=-.07,y=.02],.25,["OHL",AA,s=.1,x=-.12,y=.02],.11


Next, please rename the style to the name of hope.
