Hi,
This question had been asked last week and it was mentioned that it was a
known bug in AutoCAD. Here's what John Schmidt posted.
This is a bug in AutoCAD, and is present in all releases. Autodesk is aware
of this, but has not fixed it. They also have an unreleased tech doc. on
it - ask your reseller to get in touch with tech support for TS66457 - below
is what it contains:
-----------------------------------------------------
Here is the details of the issue you are experiencing:
Question:
Complex linetypes are displayed with the text mirrored, upside down, and
shifted. If the line is selected and any property is changed, it displays
correctly until the drawing is loaded again. If an audit or recover is run
on the drawing, errors are displayed, but the entities display mirrored
again when the drawing is reopened.
Answer:
The workaround for this issue is to use the following script to "clean up"
all of these entities for the current session. You can enter this script at
the command line, open a VLISP window and load it, or create a macro or
button. When the script runs, it will update each entity, which will clean
up the display of those complex linetypes that display the text mirrored.
***script starts next line***
(setq ss (ssget "_x" '((100 . "AcDbEntity"))))
(setq index 0)
(repeat (sslength ss)
(entupd (ssname ss index))
(setq index (+ index 1))
)
(command "_regen")
***script ends previous line***
