    Default Dyn Blk Symbol in Outer Space; Annotation @ 0

    Could someone please tell me what is going on with my dynamic block and how to fix it? The annotation is presenting itself correctly on the zero plane, but the symbol itself is completely off into space when looking at it in a SE view. Is there a way to see/prevent this from happening while creating the block in my Block Editor? I am using AutoCAD Architecture 2009 SP3, Windows Professional XP 64bit.
    Thank you in advance,
    Shelley

    check your geometry's properties in Block Editor. It should not be elevated in the Z axis.
    Sometimes, i get lost in my own thoughts and need to ask directions to find my way back.

    Thank you Chris!

    I simply edited the geometry of the block in place, moving it to zero and it worked. Before, I was trying to move the annotation with the geometry and of course that wasn't getting me the correct result.

    Dynamic blocks are cool, but a little confusing to work with at times!
