Evolution Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Is there a short cut to changing the lettering size of the CAD notes before we place them on our layout sheet? I use 13"X19" sheet size for layout/printing, and usually when I place a note it's 100's of times larger than my layout sheet so of course, I select the note after placing it, unblock it; highlight it then change the size of the text (usually 3/32) works for me. Eventually, I will complete layout pages just for Construction / Code notes but there are 5 jurisdictions, in three states; I work in (MS/TN/AR) and all the standard structural/Construction/Civil/Plumbing/Mech/Electrical notes, required; are to some degree different in each case.

parkwest Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Are you sending your notes from your cad detail? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kbird1 Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 You could perhaps use a separate Plan file for each State with the Notes in a CAD Detail and send them to Layout from there at the correct Scale. M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRAWZILLA Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 I just size the notes the correct size than save to the lib. then place them in the layout from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoeGia Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 Create a 3/32 size (layout) text style for these notes. I save mine in a plan file so they are editable without blocking and unblocking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joey_martin Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 If you place the notes in the plan file then send them, they will be to scale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
