This is NOT your first requirement.
In the first maeesage you said: "I will select a polyline on drawing and enter some text, on OK click I have to move the text along the polyline."
By respect to those who try to help you, please do not change the requirements in the same thread.
From the upper code and this one in another post of yours, you should be able to achieve what you want.
Try this.

I cannot understand why you keep on trying to do it with a DrawJig despite the fact all examples I provided use an EntityJig.
As said before, I think jigging a single entity is simpler with an EntityJig. If you absolutely want to use a DrawJig, do it so but I won't follow you on this route.
You need to PI radians (180°) to the rotation angle when its cosine is negative (i.e. [90°-270°] range)
protected override bool Update()
{
var point = pline.GetClosestPointTo(dragPt, false);
var angle = pline.GetFirstDerivative(point).AngleOnPlane(plane);
if (Math.Cos(angle) < 0.0)
angle += Math.PI;
br.Position = point;
br.Rotation = angle;
foreach (var entry in attInfos)
{
var att = entry.Key;
var info = entry.Value;
att.Position = info.Position.TransformBy(br.BlockTransform);
att.Rotation = info.Rotation + angle;
if (info.IsAligned)
{
att.AlignmentPoint = info.Alignment.TransformBy(br.BlockTransform);
att.AdjustAlignment(br.Database);
}
if (att.IsMTextAttribute)
{
att.UpdateMTextAttribute();
}
}
return true;
}
Hi _gile,
Thanks for your response, actually I understood where I got deviated. I got the issue fixed. I calculated a perpendicular point to the block position and gave it to the attribute position, and the issue got fixed.
Thanks a lot for the guidance.
Teja.
