Place Flexi-Text Along Element tool



Opens the FTEXT Along dialog which is used to place Flexi-Text, or MicroStation text elements, along or parallel to other elements.

Elements supported for matching are:

  • Arcs
  • Ellipses
  • Lines
  • Line strings
  • Shapes
  • Complex Shapes
  • Complex Strings
  • Bspline Curves
  • Curves.
Note: Normal text elements are turned into Flexi-Text elements allowing manipulation. The maximum control points setting should be kept to a minimum. Otherwise, the curve can become too convoluted and letters can be rotated to unexpected and unwanted angles.
