There's a lot of info out there reguarding this topic, thx to all who contribute, I have always managed to find answers to problems I encounter.
It seems about time linetypes are held in the drawing file and not some obscure file hidden away in the depths of the m/c and, when text is used, requiring the correct textstyle and font attached.
However I have a question to which I can't find the answer if there is an answer other than 'can't be done'
I have a linetype similar to this :- _____0______0_____ with the zero on top of the line.
When drawn 'left to right' is ok, but when drawn 'right to left' the letter appear underneath the line. Its the same when drawn vertically appearing one side of the line or the other depending on direction drawn.
Is there a way to maintain the text position, which ever way the line is drawn, without using some form of lisp routine to change the direction of the line, what a faff!
Thx in advance for any replies.
