AutoCAD LT

[#1]

mtext notes in my drawings occasionally reformat when I reopen a file.  The notes become a column of single words.  I have to go to each note and stretch the box.  Doesn't always happen, but when it does every mtext box becomes a column.  I'm using LT 2012.

You turned on and left on the Column setting in MTEXT: while in MTEXT, right-click, select COLUMNS then NO COLUMNS.

Take the time to always ensure that is set like that, and your Mtext issues will go away.

Thanks.  How do I set the default to No Columns in the future?

AFAIK setting it once keeps it that way until you change it.

For existing Mtext objects, PROPERTIES will let you change it to None too.
