It creates a single-line text object
Command
line: TEXT
Specify starting point of text oralignment [Align/Fit/Left/Center/Middle/Right/Expand/TL/TC/TR/ML/MC/MR/BL/BC/BR]: Specify a point or enter an option
Each line of text is a separate object. To end a line and begin another, press ENTER. To end the TEXT command,press ENTER twice.
Start pointSpecifies a starting point for the text object. Specify height < current>: Specify a point (1), enter a value, or press ENTER The Specify height prompt is only displayed if the current text style does not have a fixed height. Specify rotation angle of text < current>: Specify an angle or press ENTER Enter text in the command line for single-line text. |
AlignmentIt controls the justification of the text. Enter an option [Align/Fit/Left/Center/Middle/Right/Expand/TL/TC/TR/ML/MC/MR/BL/BC/BR]: It is also possible to enter any of these options at the Specify start point of text prompt. Let us look at the case in which the text height is already defined in the current style, so that it will not be required at the command line. Align It specifies both text height and text orientation by designating the endpoints of the baseline. Specify first endpoint of text or alignment.... specify a point (1) Specify final endpoint of text: specify a point (2) Enter the text in the command line for single-line text. The size of the characters will adjust in proportion to their height. The longer the text string, the shorter the characters
Fit Specifies that text fits within an area and at an orientation defined with two points Specify first endpoint of text or alignment.... specify a point (1) Specify final endpoint of text: Specify first endpoint of text or alignment.... Enter the text in the command line for single-line text. The longer the text string, the shorter the characters. The height of the characters remains constant.
Left It aligns the text to the left of the baseline specified with a point Specify a point to the left of the text: specify a point (1) Specify rotation angle of text < current>: Enter the text in the command line for single-line text.
Center It aligns the text to the center of the baseline specified with a point Specify center of text: specify a point (1) Specify rotation angle of text < current>: Enter the text in the command line for single-line text.
Middle It aligns the text with the horizontal center of the baseline and the vertical center of the text. Specify center of text: specify a point (1) Specify rotation angle of text < current>: Enter the text in the command line for single-line text. Right It aligns the text to the right of the baseline specified with a point. Specify final right endpoint of the baseline of text: specify a point (1) Specify rotation angle of text < current>: Enter the text in the command line for single-line text.
TL (Top Left) It left-justifies text at a point specified for the top of the text. This option is available for horizontally oriented text only. Specify top-left point of text: specify a point (1) Specify rotation angle of text < current>: Enter the text in the command line for single-line text.
TC (Top Center) It centers text at a point specified for the top of the text. This option is available for horizontally oriented text only. Specify top-center point of text: specify a point (1) Specify rotation angle of text < current>: Enter the text in the command line for single-line text.
TR (Top Right) It right-justifies text at a point specified for the top of the text. This option is available for horizontally oriented text only. Specify top-right point of text: specify a point (1) Specify rotation angle of text < current>: Enter the text in the command line for single-line text.
ML (Middle Left) It left-justifies text at a point specified for the middle of the text. This option is available for horizontally oriented text only. Specify middle-left point of text: specify a point (1) Specify rotation angle of text < current>: Enter the text in the command line for single-line text.
MC (Middle Center) It right-justifies text at a point specified for the middle of the text. This option is available for horizontally oriented text only. Specify middle-right point of text: specify a point (1) Specify rotation angle of text < current>: Enter the text in the command line for single-line text. The MC option differs from the Middle option because it uses the midpoint of the height of uppercase letters. The Middle option uses the midpoint of all text characters, including the descending ones.
MR (Middle Right) It right-justifies text at a point specified for the middle of the text. This option is available for horizontally oriented text only. Specify middle-right point of text: specify a point (1) Specify rotation angle of text < current>: Enter the text in the command line for single-line text.
BL (Bottom Left) It left-justifies text at a point specified for the baseline. This option is available for horizontally oriented text only. Specify bottom-left point of text: specify a point (1) Specify rotation angle of text < current>: Enter the text in the command line for single-line text.
BC (Bottom Center) It centers text at a point specified for the baseline. This option is available for horizontally oriented text only. Specify bottom-right point of text: specify a point (1) Specify rotation angle of text < current>: Enter the text in the command line for single-line text.
BR (Bottom Right) It right-justifies text at a point specified for the baseline. This option is available for horizontally oriented text only. Specify bottom-right point of text: specify a point (1) Specify rotation angle of text < current>: Enter the text in the command line for single-line text.
