Justify Text

 

The justify command will allow you to force the text to be aligned in a specific way on your shapes as it is being entered.

You can have text Right Justified, Left Justified, Middle Justifed, or spaced to fit in a specific area.

 

For example, to have text Left Justified to a polyline on the screen, you can enter text in this method.

 

LE_049

 

Select the LE Button and at the prompt, select 'J' for Justify.  You will see the following prompt at the command line.

 

LE_050

 

Type 'L' for Left (or just press Enter) and you will be prompted for the Start Point.

 

LE_051

 

Using your OSNAPS in AutoCAD, select the Left Endpoint of the line.

 

LE_052

 

You will then be prompted for the Text Height.

 

LE_053

 

And the Rotation Angle.

 

LE_054

 

And then you can enter your text.

 

LE_055

 

It should then appear to start from exactly the left end of the line where you picked the start point.

 

LE_056

 

 

 

There are other prompts for Justify as well.  

They are for Right, Center, Middle...

 

LE_058

 

As well as Top Left, Top Center, and Top Right...

 

LE_059

 

And, Middle Left, Middle Right, Middle Center...

 

LE_060

 

And finally, Bottom Left, Bottom Center, and Bottom Right.

 

LE_061

 

 

There is one final method.  That is 2P, or Two Points.

Using this method you would pick two points and the text would be fit between those two points (if possible).
