WoodlandDesign Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 I have spent too much time trying to understand how to adjust cabinet labels in Elevation Views so I'm raising the white flag. What I've tried: Adjusting defaults under text, schedules. Modifying schedule DBX settings within the schedules. Resetting and/or deleting the cabinet schedule and starting over. Closing the plan files and starting over. Reviewing archives in ChiefTalk and support. In my sample, I simply want to make the label smaller. I have only been able to manipulate the label (circle) size. The text doesn't seem to want to cooperate. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance.

Joe_Carrick Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 What Layer Set are you using for your elevation views? The text sizes should be set in that Layer Set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WoodlandDesign Posted January 7, 2020 Author Share Posted January 7, 2020 I'm using kitchen and bath layer set for elevations. I've adjusted annotations and defaults. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dermot Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 What layer controls whether or not the labels display? (answer: Cabinet, Labels) What text style is associated with the layer? (answer: probably Default Label Style if you are using the OOB template) Try changing the size in the text style or switch the layer to use a different text style.

WoodlandDesign Posted January 7, 2020 Author Share Posted January 7, 2020 That worked Dermot. Sometimes it seems there are almost too many places that adjustments can be made. I find that confusing, if that makes sense. Thanks all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WoodlandDesign Posted January 7, 2020 Author Share Posted January 7, 2020 Actually, I thought I had done just that Joe. Sometimes my changes and layer assignments don't seem to 'lock'. I'm sure it's something I'm doing incorrectly, however with what seems like sporadic success, frustration levels rise quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Make sure you save your "Saved Plan Views" and "Camera Views" after making changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
