Hi guys,

in 3D 2017, point label text, when I set it to Arial narrow size 2 and have the regular text size with the same style and size, but it gives me the different height( commonly label size is smaller than regular text size), any suggestion?

Tnx

Is it a scaling issue within your model file? ie; if you change the scale in model space, is your label text changing?

If you use annotative text it should work. The size of civil label text is based on the drawing (annotation) scale. See attached - in the point label style the text height is set to 0.07, which is 0.07*40scale=2.8 height. The regular text height is annotative set to 0.07*drawing scale, also height 2.8.
