SettingDescription
Fraction Style Provides settings to control the appearance of each annotation element in a 2D drawing.
Fraction Type Sets the type of a stacked fraction. If an annotation text is related to a dimension style (e.g. hole diameter), the fraction settings are used from that style. Here you can set either horizontal, diagonal stacking or no stacking.
  • No Stacking – used as default when an old drawing is loaded. There are no stacked fractions visible until that style will be changed (requires an element update) or some new elements will be created.
  • Horizontal Stacking – Aligns the stacked fraction horizontal. (e.g. 0 14').
  • Diagonal Stacking – When set, stacks the fractions diagonally. (e.g. 0¼').
Text display resulting from element property data (e.g. shape length, is shown as ‘10:6 3/8’) could be different regarding how this text have been created. If it consists of basic MicroStation text that is already part of the DGN nothing will change. However, when a text is embedded into a ProStructures element that is calculated and drawn on runtime, this text display will change to a better display style. It will happen when the element display is updated and includes fraction stacking too.
Scaling Indicates the text size scaling of stacked fraction. The scaling values are set to 1.0 (of text size) by default.
