GstarCAD 2027 · Command Reference

Commands > C Command > CHANGETEXT

Function Description:

When there are several texts in the drawing which need to be modified, it will be much more tedious and inefficient to modify them one by one. The CHANGETEXT command allows users to make bulk modifications to several texts. For example, this function can modify the alignment, height, width, position, rotation, style and content of several texts simultaneously. It greatly improves the efficiency of single text and Mtext modifications.
