MTEXT Command

You can create and edit multiple columns within MTEXT entities. With the in-place text editor, you can add columns with equal widths and consistent gutters (spaces between columns), and adjust the height with grips.

Columns are beneficial for complex documentation or design notes because they help you organize multicolumn text into clearly structured, easy-to-read layouts. They also maximize the available workspace by efficiently managing text within drawings.

To use the MTEXT Command:

Do one of the following:
  • On the ribbon, click Annotate > Text > Note.
  • On the menu, click Draw > Text > Note.
  • Enter NOTE in the command window.
