Change Multiline Text
You can change the location and content of multiline text objects with the
Properties palette, the In-Place Text Editor, and grips.
After you create multiline text, you can use the Properties palette to change
the following:
■ Text style assignment
■ Justification
■ Width
■ Rotation
■ Line spacing
In addition, you can use the following to modify individual formatting, such
as boldface and underlining, and width for multiline text objects:
■ Text Editor ribbon contextual tab
■ Text Formatting toolbar
■ In-Place Text Editor
■ Grips
Change Text Location
You can use many of the common modifying commands and grips to move
multiline text objects. A multiline text object has grips at the four corners of
the text boundary and, in some cases, at the justification point.
Commands such as DIMLINEAR or LEADER create multiline text automatically
without requiring that a bounding box be specified; these objects have only
a single grip at the justification point.
When you need to align or move multiline text objects, you can use the Node
and Insertion object snaps for precision. If the OSNAPNODELEGACY system
variable is set to 0, the Node object snap ignores multiline text.
