Constraining to text object in dynamic block

Anonymous

Hello,

I have a drawing label dynamic block which has multiple scales in visibility states and it has a double underlining that I want to constrain to the length of text. I had a stretch parameter set to adjust it after I type the text, but if I could constrain horizontally the underlining to the bottom left point of the text, that would save me the step each time I use the block.

I've attached the block and added POINT(don't forget to change PTYPE) objects at the points that I want to be horizontally constrained. I want the text to be centered, so I'm thinking I can't give it left justification.

If you have any ideas, I would appreciate it!

 

Thanks!

Michael

Not sure if it's possible to constraint a polyline with text. 

Why not use the underline line option in attribute which would add a underline as per the width of the text, but this would be limited to single underline.

You can create underline by adding %%u at the start of attribute value.

Hmm, well shoot. No worries, it's not a huge amount of work to adjust the underline. Yeah, I thought about just using a simple underline, but we do have a standard drawing label with a double underline.

 

Thanks!
