Text reversed in blocks that are inside a dynamic block when it is flipped

Hello

I have a dynamic block.  This block is constructed from a closed polyline, and a number of other small blocks.  The dynamic block uses only the flip parameter.  The other smaller blocks have a one letter text string as part of the block.  The string is constant, that is not an attribute.  When the block is flipped, the text strings are reversed in the small blocks.  You can see this in the 2 attached jpegs.  I have also attached the dwg file.  I am using  Autocad C3D  as AutoCad 2016. I have spent the last 2 days trying to solve this problem, but to no avail.

Thank very much

John

If you make it an attribute, it will orient properly. I tried to make it an attribute with the Constant flag set, but that just causes it to treat it as text and it won't flip properly. I just created it as an attribute with a default value set and it worked.

 

BTW, this is the VBA forum, not the acad forum.
