Wire Color Block Name

I cannot seem to find the block that AutoCAD: Electrical uses for the wire color code, with respect to the *wdw file. If I double, click on it, then AutoCAD treats it as single line text.

 

What I am trying to do is change the default text justifcation, as I personally like to use the Align tool and align it under the Wire Number.

 

Thanks.

Have you tried AEWIRETYPE ?

The settings for the wire color/gauge labels are stored in the Standard dimension style (Overridden settings). I dont belive you can change the text justification there though.

And the label is just inserted as a normal single line text using the settings from there.

Thanks for the help, it is not what I wanted to hear; but at least I know that it cannot be done - yet. :o)

Hello,

 

Sorry for reopening an old post..... Has this been updated in the newer versions of ACADE?

Can we change the schematic block for wire color/gauge?

 

Thanks,

Goutham

Nope, it's still not a block, just a text.
