Managing Text Styles

You can manage text styles in the Text style management dialog box.

  1. Click Modify > Text styles .

    The Text style manager dialog box opens and lists the available text styles that you can use in a DWG file or an electrical scheme.

  2. In the Text style manager dialog box, specify the following options to select the current text style of the active file, or to view, add, edit, or delete text styles from the list of available styles.
    Option Description
    Add text style Adds a new text style. A new line is added at the end of the list. You can change its name and parameters.
    Delete selection Deletes the selected text style. You cannot delete a text style used in the DWG file (or electrical scheme).
    Set selected style as current Defines the selected text style as current in the DWG file (or electrical scheme).
    When you define a text style as current, all commands that add text to the active file use the defined style. Define text styles for each file. The list of available styles can differ among files and electrical projects.
    Do not use SHX file fonts to define a text style as this can cause problems when you export the electrical project pages. If you import drawings, symbols, or title blocks, ensure that you do not have text elements with an SHX font in the original files.
