While aligning and constraining lines goes well,i get the same result with model text but a strange offset
Did i miss something on the way?
video:
And also: If i change the model text value, i get an "Constraints are not satisfied.
The Constraints not satisfied is most probably due to the Horizontal Alignment property of the Text (center/left/right). The Text Horizontal Alignment is set to Left or Right, every time the size change the text will try to shift to preserve alignment => constraint not satisfied because text is locked to center
You need constrain/lock it to reference lines...from the way it is flexing it is obvious that it has not been properly constrained. I would nest the Model Text as a generic model into the Specialty Equipment Sign family...See below Screencast

Thanks for your very much detailed tutorial. i am going to watch it again and again trying to understand what going on.
it a totally different method then mine for building sign families.
check parameters Number changed to not be as default.

Thoooough — for some mysterious reason — if you UNLOCK the horizontal alignment and LOCK the BOTTOM ALIGNMENT (and create the required reference planes for text height), the text will not break constraints. Works for families in which the text is aligned to the center.
Side note : I didn't use a nested family. Is straight up model text placed on a face.
