    Default Dynamic Block text alignment changes left to right

    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 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

    Quickly looking, it seems that all the dynamic functions are working correctly as long as you use the grips, and also if you use the properties. May be you need to reset the block, and / or work with a fresh insert on your side. when I ran the mirror command it seemed to work also, but would not recommend it. as when I just put a negative scale value on it via the properties it does tend to mess up, but understandably so as it looks like you have universal scaling turned on and it applies a negative to all the x,y, & z scales.

    Anywho.... looks like it works correctly to me... I will say it doesn't look like your finished and still has some functionality to add, but the flipping seems to work fine. Maybe your text set var settings are different than mine, in that mine is set to see mirrored text as readable and not as if through a mirror..

    Take Care

    Thanks USMCbody,

    yeah my mirrortext is set to read correctly. but if I flip or mirror and then edit the ATT the alignment will be off.

    Ahh yes I see it now... set the attribute text alignment to bottom right for the elevation and top right for the level.

    It would seem that the text alignment was right and it seemed to make it 'break'...
