Mutlileader content properties shows 'code' to change text height? {\H0.91667x;}

I noticed that some of my text's were different sizes even though when I selected them all in the properties it showed them all being height 5.

I changed my units to be highest amount of decimals but that wasn't the issue. Then I noticed in the properties of the smaller text it showed the 'code' - {\H0.91667x;} which I assume scales the text by that amount.

When I go to edit the text in the text editor ribon, it displays the actual height of 4.5834, even though in the properties it still shows 5, if I change it to 5 in the ribon, it seems to get ride of the code in the properties but I cannot find a way to change it for multiple labels at the same time.

 

Is there a way to change this for a few thousand labels at the same time? I've checked text styles and couldn't see anything there and couldn't find anything online when googling text height code.

 

I've attached a sample DWG with just 2 labels, test 1 is with the code and test 2 being normal.

 

Thank you

The text in MLEADER is the same as MTEXT, and that code shows someone using manual overrides in the text editor.

And much like MTEXT, you have to be deliberate and inside the text editor to remove those overrides.

 

OR... In PROPERTIES at that entry you can just remove all that is not relevant to the text you want to keep to restore it.

 

For 100s of examples to fix, nothing built-in does that. But if you are using LT2024 or LT2025 you try to find a LISP to do that if one exists, the one most popular with full AutoCAD users does not work in LT2024/25 (its called STRIPMTEXT should you stumble upon it).
