TXTEXP is an interesting command: in order to explode text objects, it actually exports them to a Windows Metafile (.WMF) using the WMFOUT command, and then reimports the file back in using WMFIN. This, in itself, is trickier than it sounds, as WMFOUT creates the graphics in the file relative to the top left of the drawing area, and it takes some work to generate the WCS location to pass into the WMFIN command for the geometry to be in the same location.

This re-import process seems to mimic your 'relocation' experience if I'm not mistaken.

Simply move the text to where you really want it after running txtexp.

Exactly: that very old express tool is limited and was only designed for 2D.

HI;

 

>> So how to work in 3D

TXTEXP is not designed to run in 3D-views. So create your text in normal 2D-view (view plan to XY plane), then let the text be exploded, the resulting entities can then be moved/rotated/scaled/aligned to any 3D plane and position you like.
