In order to apply the annotation scale to a Text Style, you must toggle on the Annotation Scale Lock in<br />
the Place Text dialog box before placing the text. Select the Place Text command to access the dialog<br />
box shown below.<br />
In the example above, the ODOT, standard text style Slanted-Normal LS=0.50 has been selected with<br />
the Model annotation scale set to Engr 1:20. The text size and line spacing will be set as follows:<br />
Text Size: 0.14 inch x 20 feet/inch = 2.8 feet<br />
Line Spacing: 0.50 inch x 2.8 feet = 1.4 feet<br />
(Line Spacing is set to half the Text size)<br />
Text Styles do not set the Level or Weight for the text placement. The text will be placed on the active<br />
level with the active weight. All text placed using Text Styles established for Title and Sub-Title text<br />
should be placed at a weight <strong>of</strong> 2.<br />
207.5 Dimension Styles<br />
Similar to Text Styles, a MicroStation Dimension Style is a saved set <strong>of</strong> dimensioning parameters. ODOT<br />
has configured a set <strong>of</strong> dimension styles to be used on ODOT plans. These styles are defined in the<br />
ODOT Standard DGN Library, ODOT_Styles.dgnlib, which can be obtained from the ODOT <strong>CADD</strong><br />
<strong>Standards</strong> website. This file is attached or used by the MicroStation configuration variable MS_DGNLIB.<br />
