Block with annotative attributes

luigiverdenico — Fri, 10 Apr 2020 18:32:09 GMT

Hello,
I am getting acquainted with annotative objects, which I have never used until now. I have blocks with attributes for which I want only the attribute to be annotative. In the block editor I select the attribute, put "yes" on the annotative property and assign the annotative scales. As long as I'm in the block and I select the attribute, it shows me the two texts corresponding to the two different scales. However when I exit the block and go from one annotation scale to another, the height of the attribute does not change. Did I miss any options?
Thanks.

Propably I was not clear. My block is composed of a graphic part that must remain fixed and an attribute that must be annotative. I can't set the annotative property for the block otherwise it changes size. In your example you created a block made just with an atribute but if you add a graphic part, it will change dimensions too and it's not my need.

I believe you only need to set your text style to be annotative, nothing else anywhere else, if that is what you only wish to change when you change your annotative scale.

I setted it in annotative but nothing changes. I attach an example file. There are 2 blocks: one of them is called "Nota STS" and it's an annotative block. I setted 2 annotation scales (called 1: 50 and 1:100) and when I switch between them, the block correctly changes dimensions. The second block, called CN403, is a NOT annotative block with an annotative attribute for which I setted the 2 annotation scales. Switching beetween them, the dimension of attribute doesnt change. Can you help me?

Hi,

Nothing seems to be wrong with the block. Just type in the command ANNOAUTOSCALE and set it to "4".
