Table Of Contents
Default
Specifies the default attribute value.
Insert Field Button
Displays the
Field dialog box (page 429). You can insert a field as all or part of
the value for an attribute.
This button is available when you are not creating a multiline attribute. If you
are creating a multiline attribute, right-click in the multiline in-place text
editor and choose Field.
Multiline Editor Button
When Multiple Line mode is selected, displays an in-place text editor with a
text formatting toolbar and ruler. Depending on the setting of the
ATTIPE
(page 1175) system variable, the Text Formatting toolbar displayed is either the
abbreviated version, or the full version.
For more information, see the
In-Place Text Editor (page 675).
NOTE Several options in the full In-Place Text Editor are grayed out to preserve
compatibility with single-line attributes.
Text Settings
Sets the justification, style, height, and rotation of the attribute text.
Text Style
Specifies a predefined text style for the attribute text. Currently loaded text
styles are displayed. To load or create a text style, see
STYLE (page 1006).
Justification
Specifies the justification of the attribute text. See TEXT (page 1044) for a
description of the justification options.
Annotative
Specifies that the attribute is annotative. If the block is annotative, the attribute
will match the orientation of the block. Click the information icon to learn
more about annotative objects.
Text Height
Specifies the height of the attribute text. Enter a value, or choose Height to
specify a height with your pointing device. The height is measured from the
origin to the location you specify. If you select a text style that has fixed height
(anything other than 0.0), or if you select Align in the Justification list, the
Height option is not available.
