    Changing Styles and Width factor for Light and Diffuser Tags

    I want light and difffuser tags to use style REGT which uses FONT Romansp.shx with a width factor of 0.8. Is there an easy way to do this without exploding the block and editing the attribute text. Changing the Standard dim style to REGT only changes out the FONT and the width is not affected.

    Hi Mark -

    The view blocks inside the tags work in the same way as a standard AutoCAD
    block.

    The width factor of the attributes are applied to each instance of the
    blocks rather than the block definitions.

    If you always wanted the blocks to show this way you should edit the content
    drawings, so that they come in with a default width factor of .8.

    Jason, I did a search for the content drawing and it was not located.
