Block Creation

Anonymous — Tue, 10 Nov 2015 16:02:34 GMT

I have created several block with attributes in AutoCAD 2016 .

When I insert them at 1/4 scale(48) the block are the correct size for the drawing and so are the attributes. When I insert them at 1/8 scale(96) the attributes scale to the proper size but the block is twice the size it needs to be.

I have missed something. I know it but I can't put my finger on it.

How do I fix this. Do I have to create two separate block groups?

Not tried using it, but have you made your block ANNOTATIVE or just the attributes?

Try making the block Annotative as well. When you open up the block in the block editor it's in the PROPERTIES of the block, near the bottom

Can you post the offending block in a blank drawing?
