Hi,

 

I am looking for a solution to read the correct text height of a dimension from the Model Space.

 

If the dimension is not-annotative, you can simply use the fme_text_size attribute.

 

When a dimension is set to Annotative, the fme_text_size is rescaled.

In AutoCAD:

imageimageWhile in FME:

image--> Scaling factor = 10

However, I noticed that most of the time in the autocad_extended_data_list{} , you can select the last "real:" value in the list to find the actual text height.

imageSo far so good, but now I have a new input file, where I cannot find a correct real value in this list. I have attached this DWG.imageimage--> scaling factor = 5

 

I have disabled the "Explode Dimensions" in the reader parameters, but

I have checked an this has no effect.

 

For dimensions I can't find some kind of annotative scaling factor to multiply the fme_text_size.

 

Any ideas?

 

Jasper
