Annotative text height missing from dropdown list in Quick Select tool

Hello all,

 

I wanted to find some text that may be a different height in a drawing and was using the quick select tool to try and locate that text.  I set my object type to text and when I look through my properties list, height is missing.  If I use non-annotative text, the height property is there.  Is there any idea why it's missing for annotative text?QUICK SELECT MISSING ANNO TEXT HEIGHT.png

Hi,

>> I wanted to find some text that may be a different height in a drawing

i suggest to change the Annotative scale from below status bar to the scale that you want to find .  and regarding your list the ... it's normal to not find text height option because you're treat with Annotative text object .

That's not an ability found in QSELECT yet.

If I could add to this solution. The QSELECT tool cannot use Text Height as a search criteria if the majority of the text is Annotative. 

If most of the text is not annotative, you will be able to search based on height in QSELECT. 

(I have tested this in AutoCAD 2021)
