Align Text to Curve
Lee Mac ProgrammingAlign Text to Curve
Lee Mac ProgrammingDynamically align text to a selected curve.
Free
The program enables the user to dynamically align a new or existing Text or MText object to a selected curve, with intuitive placement controls available at the command-line.
The program may be used to align an existing text object in the drawing, or the user may create a new text object by specifying the text content.
Multiple copies of a text object may be aligned to the selected curve if the 'Multiple Text Mode' is enabled in the Settings menu.
Text is dynamically aligned in real-time, with the text offset & rotation relative to the curve controllable by the user.
With the 'Readability' setting enabled, text is automatically rotated to preserve readability and will never appear upside-down.
When using the program to align an MText object, the MText Background Mask may be toggled on & off during text alignment.
The program is compatible for use with:
· Lines
· LWPolylines
· 2D (Heavy) Polylines
· 3D Polylines
· Arcs
· Circles
· Ellipses
· Elliptical Arcs
· Splines
Furthermore, these objects may be primary objects in the drawing, or nested (to any depth) within a block or xref.
The program will also perform successfully under all UCS & View settings and with Annotative Text Styles.
