Text Scale Automatically in MS/PS

Text Scale Automatically in MS/PS

Text Scale Automatically in MS/PS

(OP)
With dimscale set to "zero" the dimscale is set automatically to the value of the current viewport in use, is there a way to do the same thing for TEXT only (ie use the scale of the viewport to automatically scale the text up to the correct scale for that view)?

RE: Text Scale Automatically in MS/PS

I don't think so for text or mtext only.  However, if you use the quickleader, it uses the dimension style properties, so the text will scale correctly.  Then just delete the leader if you don't need it.

Great idea, it seems to work well, I have some clients who don't understand font scales, etc and this will prove to be very helpful.
