ACA 2013 "Plan Elevation Label" Rotation Angle

User inquiry:

 

I went to content browser and loaded the "Plan Elevation Label" onto my tool palette when I go to place the label in the drawing it prompts for elevation and nothing else.

 

How can you change the rotation on the screen accept to use the rotation command?

 

The tag itself is referencing a block I went to the block and changed the block now if I go to insert the multi view block it prompts for rotation but not to edit the attribute is there any way to get it to do both?

At this time the MVBlock is responding as designed within the software.  To get around the intended function of this block the user can explode this object, creating a simply block (no more AEC ties to intelligent data).  This will then enable the user to redefine the block to add attributes for components the user wishes to set.  From here you can add attributes back in for the text of this item but it is important to note that if you do they will not be linked to project/file data specific to AEC content and will be at the basic level of ACAD at its core.  From here you will then be able to specify rotation angel of the block when inserting in to a file by a simple right click on the object form within the tool palette itself.
