Multi-line Attributes

[joeswantek]

I'm using ADT 2006, but I thought this might be best suited for this forum. Is there any way to create block attributes that will act similarly to multiline text? I'm creating blocks for keynotes and details, and one big long line of text isn't working very well. Any suggestions anyone?

This has been on my wishlist for years.

This may seem obvious, but I assume that multiple or stacked line within the one attribute block isn't the way forward for you

think he's looking for the wrapped text thing here. Yes I would agree that would be most useful to have

I know that the wrapped text would be very helpful, I was just trying to suggest an alternative.

I thought about the stacked single lines, but the problem is that I won't be filling every one every time. Somebody get Autodesk on the line, I want to file a complaint!

You may not be filling everyone, but the unused ones won't show in the drawing. Just think of them as line1, line2 etc see how many you think you will need and add 1 or 2 extra just in case.
Again not a solution (only Autodesk can do that), but a possible work around.

That's the workaround we've been using for years now. We have one spot in our title block where we want up to three lines, and we have it setup with three separate attributes. It's annoying in several different ways, but the worst is when we only want to use two of the lines. When only two of the attributes are used, the resulting text isn't centered vertically in the allotted space.
