Title: Attributes flipping differently
Post by: whdjr on April 03, 2008, 11:13:01 AM
Alright now it's my turn to ask for help.  These two blocks in this file have attributes that when flipped don't behave the same.  When flipped the attribute should read the same as before but one of them rotates the text 180 when flipped.  I created these the same way (I thought) but can't figure this out.  Anybody know why this is doing this?

I'm having trouble opening it for some reason...something about digital signatures?

So far in playing with it - I have found that the p-ur-long has flip issue with the geometry.  if you rotate 90 clockwise then flip about the horizontal axis, then you flip about the vertical axis you get a two degree rotation.

It seems rotate 180 from where I left you above it you get the backwards text.  It seems to mess up when you do a rotate after a flip.  I dont know what to tell ya except i am not a DB expert.  I wimp out and delete the rotates feature in use the properties pallet handle rotation.

I don't know what to tell you, we don't use digital sigs so they shouldn't be there.

Ok, I fixed it.  I just erased the flip and recreated it and it worked.  Thanks for all your thoughts.
