Drafting Symbol issue in Scrapbooks

Hi,

I’m not sure why one of the drafting symbols in Scrapbooks (TB-Simple Serif - Drafting Symbols 1) when dragged onto the sheet only brings part of it? The other symbols seem to be fine, however this one is behaving strangely. Any suggestions to get it to work would be greatly appreciated. I have attached a screenshot, but it is quite tiny to see. Hopefully this makes sense.

It’s auto text and should say the name of the scene that you drop it onto. I may not be fully up to speed, as the only way I know to make it stick is to drop in on top of the view port and then reposition it afterward. If there’s another way to make the connection, I’d like to know.

I see the same thing with that one. The group that label belongs to has been exploded. You can fix it for yourself by editing the scrapbook. make the group and then save the changes. I would probably make the leaders for those two labels longer to make them easier to see on the page.

Maybe @adam can pass this off to whomever is in charge of scrapbooks so it can be fixed on their end.

You’re right about the autotext labels. You have to anchor the leader to the model in the viewport. You can do that as I did in the previous post or you can drop the thing on the model and then move it afterward.

Thanks for your help Dave. I thought it was perhaps an error only at my end. I will give your suggestion a go :slight_smile:

Yup, that’s what I have been doing, though, the one I’ve been using, the scale wouldn’t take. The first method is what I struggled with, but now I get it. It can be fussy to grab the right point.

You do have to make sure you double click on the leader and then grab the endpoint to move it to anchor to the model in the viewport.

I have found that in some cases only one of the leaders will attach when I drop the group over the viewport. Or I have to be careful to make sure both leaders are over the model. It could be useful to edit those scrapbook items to adjust where the leader endpoints are so they are easier to link to the model. Maybe put the endpoints of both leaders at the same point.
