Hi -
I moved your post to a new topic as your question had absolutely nothing to do with that other thread.
I kept the “Scripting” category, but I’m not convinced that is correct here…
Can you post your script?
-wim

From the V7 command line:

1 text added to selection.
Command: _Explode
Exploded an annotation object into 1 curves.
Curves from text may orient differently than text in viewports because of AnnotationStyle settings.

If you uncheck this setting your mirrored text will show up as correctly mirrored - i.e. the mirrored 2 as text will actually appear backwards - and when you explode the text to curves it will not change orientation.

I do not know of a way to preserve mirrored text so that it stays right-reading when exploded into curves, except perhaps to create a pseudo-mirror script that actually just copies the right-reading text to the other side of a mirror line. Therefore I would avoid mirroring text if you are going to explode it later.

Here is a quickie script that will mirror object (including text) locations while not mirroring the objects themselves. Perhaps it might be useful…

Edit - slight cosmetic revision
