    Annotation Changes Unexpectedly

    I am having problems with my valve annotations changing when I go into Project Properties.  When I place a valve onto a primary line segment which already has a size assigned to it, the size of the pipe appears above the valve.  Now, when I go into Project Properties and exit ( it doesnt matter if i hit cancel, apply, or ok) my annotations chenge.  Is this a problem with the project, the drawing, or the template?  I am currently using a custom template file to start my P&ID drawings.  I tried to customize some properties, but it has been a while since I used the program, so I am unsure what I did.  Any help is great.

     

    Thanks,

    Ryan

    One thing I noticed is that this started happening in this project after I edited the block for off-page connectors.

    I just posted a similar problem, then found this post, my post has example images attached.

     

    AutoCAD P&ID 2011 Annotation Update Problem

     

    I had created my own off page connectors, and P&ID objects.  I am finding the customization to be problematic - goofy things happening.
