Text Properties

In dialogs for elements which use text (e.g. room descriptions, dimensions etc.) there is generally a sub-dialog available to set the text properties.

The sub-dialog is activated by clicking directly on the button with the text preview or on the arrow on the right side of it. The usual text properties such as font, colour, format and alignment can then be specified. If there is sufficient space, a preview of the changed text is shown on the button itself.

The settings for alignment have no visible effect in the text properties dialog . They only come into effect when the text is used, at which point the size of the ‘frame’ surrounding the text is determined. Only when the text is used in planning are the lines aligned left- or right-justified. There are two possibilities for setting font size. Either as an absolute size on printout in mm, or dependant on scale. The field for absolute font size offers several common values from which you can choose. Other settings can be specified by simply overwriting the value in the input field.
