autotstack

[ILCML]

I am unable to find the parameter in AC2004 that allows you to turn OFF the autostack within the multiline command....I can do it manually, but it's very tedious.

This maybe...

that is close! I cannot find that properties box...when I right click on the highlighted stacked text, there is no 'properties' to select. (following procedure in help)

Type 3/4 into your box then click on the stack icon button. You should now have the properties option when you right click on your multiline text box.

I think you are looking for the system variable DimFrac. When using architectural or fractional units, setting DimFrac to 0 is horizontal, 1 is diagonal and 2 is not stacked. On the command line type DimFrac and then your choice. You can type DimLUnits and change it to 1 fo r scientific, 2 for decimal, 3 for engineering, 4 for architectural, 5 for fractional and 6 for Windows Desktop default. You can make buttons or simple commands to change them. I use UA to change to Architectural not stacked and UD to change to Decimal.

Thank you IFRs...is there a spreadsheet showing all these commands anywhere? No telling where the book is that came with it 3 years ago

DimFrac only changes your stacked numbers in your dimensions, not in your multiline text.
