Civil Profile views text

Anyone had issues with civil profile views text showing up super small inside a viewport? Seems to be happening more and more. Only fix I have found is whole new layout and copy over. or Start a new drawing and copy layout. I have checked the annotation scale of the viewport and the usual things, look proper in model space.

Hi @RickfromtheNorth 

While in modelspace, adjust your annotation scale so it's the same as your viewport scale.

So they appear small in a layout tab viewport but in the model tab they appear the correct size?  What version of Civil 3D?  Native drawing profile view or xref'd profile view?

 

Provide as much info as possible.

@RickfromtheNorth 

The text height should automatically display nicely in your viewport unless someone, maybe you, maybe not you, adjusted the ‘default’ text height of your Profile View Style.

 

Too frequently, the default text height in the profile view style is adjusted instead of establishing the proper annotation drawing scale. Inadvertently adjusting the default text height will compound the problem.
