Making a block annotaive in middle of the stream.
« on: August 10, 2011, 10:43:42 AM »
IF I already have block inserted that is not annotative but I used the block editor to turn it into a annotative block, all the instances of said inserted block disappear.  They are in the file, Battman confirms it but I be darn if I can get them to show up.  What am I doing wrong?
I + XI = X is true ...  ... if you change your perspective.

Have you tried changing the annotation scale to larger one?

I got it to work in a round about way.

The block was scaled already by a factor of 96.  The Canno Scale was set to 1/8".  I had to change the block scale to 1, then change the Canno scale to 1, then change the block settings to annotative by using the block editor.  Close the BE and the blocks were visible and touchable.  Then change the Canno Scale to 1/8" and then add that scale factor to the annotative block.  **Sigh**

Thanks.
