MText in a dynamic block

Anonymous
Not applicable

ACA 2015:

I'm updating an old dynamic block.  Kind of starting from scratch.  I created the DB with all the parameters and actions to get it to work correct. BUT the only thing that is the problem is that 1 of the 2 mtext objects in the DB doubles its' distance from its original position when I flip the block.  When I flip it back, it doubles again.  I had to 'resetblock'.

   Now, I've been troubleshooting the problem and it comes down to this, when the the mtext is not connected to the stretch parameter, it flips ok.  Once I add a stretch parameter and action, this is when the mtext doubles its location when flipping.

 

What am I missing?

 

thanks.

Actually, I just figured out the problem.  When selecting objects to flip, do not select any parameters that are chained.  I had a parameter that was set as midpoint and the action multiplier was at .5 so everytime I flipped the DB, the mtext doubled its' distance from the block.
