oblique text in acad 2000
(OP)
I am having problems obliquing text in 2000.
The acad help tells me that I should be able to assign minus angles to the oblique field, but when I do it says 'invalid Argument angle in obliqueangle property'
I am trying to assign rotation angle 30, oblique angle -30 to get the text inside an instrument cloud to appear correct on an iso.
Any ideas?

I am sure that in previous versions of acad it accepted both 330 and -30?

This is different from rotation when using TXT command.
It may be that the FONT chosen cannot be obliqued, in which case use a simpler one or try using TXT instead of MTEXT, DTEXT etc.
Sorry if I have stated the obvious!
Hope this helps

It turned out that the font I was using could not be obliqued. I used MTEXT, and set the angle in the STYLE window, and this worked a treat. Thanks again.
