Is there away to flip an attribute and have the justification switch at the same time? For instance from Left Center to Right Center. So that the text can be edited and still looks ok after a flip.
I don't believe this is available. I haven't found a way to accomplish this, yet.

Hi "lwhite.49103" ( Sorry, I do not know your real name )
Please note I have *moved* this thread from the AutoCAD Customization (http://forums.augi.com/forumdisplay.php?f=118) forum to this one, as I feel this particular forum is a more appropriate place for such a topic.
Thanks, Mike

This command allows you to change the justification of the text amongst other things. Hope it still works for you in version 2006.

anyway, i'm trying a workaround here (http://forums.augi.com/showthread.php?t=35465), but am still waiting for a solution...

We just work around it here by setting up our attribute blocks with Middle Center justification. It may not be the best way, but it keeps things looking uniform even if you flip a block.
Hope this helps.

I also ran into this, and the universal answer seems to be that the lack of justification mirroring is a "feature" of the current dynamic blocks.
