Text Justify buttons or quick way to justify text

[Anonymous]

Hello, I have thousands of Mtexts and Texts that are all justified incorrectly, what is the quickest way to justify rather than the properties drop down box?

Try TJUST command

I ran into a similar situation about a week ago, so I created this lisp to save me a bunch of time.

I hope it helps!

Make sure to change the file type from .txt to .lsp (it wouldnt let me upload a lsp file)

... or use PROPERTIES command.

OP doesn't like Properties

Qselect, and BOOM, done.

I know you stated you don't like using the Properties pallet for this task but I feel that it is really the best way to change these settings in bulk. Select all of the text objects then go to the justification options and make the change. that's it.  Maybe there is a step that I am missing that you find is difficult. Is it in selecting all of the text objects? Sorting them once you have?

Using Qselect, as suggested above, is a great way to make sure you get all text objects and only text objects. But it will still take you to the properties pallet. 

Maybe if you expand on the process you use we could offer more assistance for you.

Update:

I totally missed the above post of using the TJUST command! that may be your solution. Start the command, select the text, and pick the justification you need. I completely forgot about that command!
