annotation text on sheet

I have used one construct with some annotation text  in 2 views having a different scale. I have set 2 scales for the annotation text, and a text dimension in paper space.

 

I have placed both views on one layout.

I would have liked to have the same text dimension in both views on the sheet, but this didn´t happen:

the text is displayed smaller in the view with a larger scale.

 

Would be glad to get a hint about what I did wrong.

Thank you in advance

When I learned how to use ACA, it was pretty clear that annotation was to be placed in views, not constructs. The entire ACA tagging and dimensioning system is designed with that approach in mind. Every time I thought I'd save a few seconds by adding annotation to constructs, I ended up wasting minutes and hours.

 

I don't know why it's not working in your situation but it is most likely caused by an annotation scale naming problem. In the future, you can avoid these problems by following the annotation and dimensioning recommendations.
