Attributes in Mechanical 6 Titleblock

Hi

Does anyone have an explanation of the numbers that appear at the end of the
attribute definitions in the standard title blocks. I believe they control
the length of the string when the attribute is in use. I am talking about
the numbers in the curly braces something like gen-part-name{5.92}.

Thanks

the number represents a ratio for fit of a line into a space..... for
example if you have .25 height text and a 5" space to fit it into.... your
number would be 20.0 ( 5/.25) if it were .14 high and a 3.45
space....24.64... (3.45/.14)
