Wire Color/Gauge Leader Flip

[Anonymous]

Is there a way to always have the wire color gauge always on the bottom of the wire?

I currently use the manual/no leader option and use F to flip it after every insertion, but it would be nice to save a few key strokes after every selection.

Find the default block that is used and move the attribute to below the insertion point by the distance it is currently above the insertion point, then change the attribute justifcation to top left.

That should do it.

Thank you for the reply Scott, but the Wire Color/Gauge Leader is not a block. It is just text generated from the WDW mapping file.

I was thinking about editing the Lisp.

Does anyone know if this is possible?

Thanks again,

The wire color/gauge labels are generated using regular ACAD dimension text.
That is why you can manipulate them with regular ACAD commands like move and
rotate, versus the Edit Attribute commands.

Thanks for the input Doug,

Does ACE generate the text with a lisp? If so, can it be modified to flip the text after every manual/no leader point selected?

Thanks again,
