    Default Prevent fractions from stacking in MText

    OK so I figured out how to stop fractions from stacking in dimensions, but how do I get them to stop im mtext? I'm sure it's a variable I need to set but I can't figure out which one.

    Thanks in advance.

    I think it is the two TSTACK... variables.

    In mtext, type a fraction, right click on it, and go to stack properties and then Autostack, and you can set your defaults. Do this in your template file and it should carry through to all drawings created from that template

    So this setting is for each individual drawing? You can't set the default and have it carry thru any opened drawing from then on? My AutoCaps keeps turning off and I wonder if this is why.

    I honestly don't know if it's per drawing, I have mine set in my template and start all my new drawings using that template.

    Give it a try and see what happens.

    I also have the AutoCaps issue, and think it is just a bug; sometimes it stays on, sometimes it doesn't. Other people I know have the same issue.
