I have a text box in ACAD which I can\'t get into. \"Explode\" doesn\'t work, as it is not a Block Reference.

Double-clicking the text or \"find and replace\" don\'t work either.

Does anyone have an idea of how to edit the text?



Thank you so much



Veronica

This is in case it is a block reference. If not, try to select an item and right-click it, select Properties. You can find a field named Text Overwrite which would contain the text for editing.



If the text contains units of measurements, you will have to change the style (suffix and prefix).



I need more info to help you out.
