Kduke11 Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 I might be missing something, but I have 4 elevations. 2 are 1/4" scale and 2 are 3/16" scale to fit on one sheet. I have annotation sets for 1/4" and 3/16". When I change the roof label to 1/4" text style for the 1/4" elevation it changes the one for the 3/16" scale elevation as well. Is their a way to make this work?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginkgohouse Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 In your 3/16" layer set is your Roof Label text style still set to 1/4 scale ? Just create a new text style and apply it to that layer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Annotations are way easier in those but I'm sure Chief is working on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginkgohouse Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 When you are pushing different elevations to the layout the layer set definitions go with it. So when you push with the "1/4" Elevation" (1, 2) set all of the text sizes and so forth go with it..... So to get the 3/16" elevations to appear correct (consistent text sizes - 1/8" tall when printed) you need to create a new layer set (3), rename it, then for the text sizes go to (5) and set the desired Text Style. If the one you want is not already created you can do so pretty easily by clicking on (4) and setting it up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
