I create a TextEntity,and have set a TextHeight to it,but when i add it to a list,its TextHeight was set to default 1,and the DimenScale shows also.What’s wrong with it?

Can you share some source code?

Hi,

Could it be you transform te textentity or change anything else on it?

Iirc there is a bug that defaults the text height back after changing other properties of a textentity.

The video isn’t helpful.

If you want help, please provide source code, that we can run here, that isn’t working for you.

Hello @dale !

I have encountered a similar problem. However, in my case, I am getting the bounding box of the TextEntity. Here is a simplified version of the code I run in GhPython component:

import Rhino.Geometry as rg

# create TextEntity
textEntity = rg.TextEntity()
textEntity.Text = "I am text"
textEntity.TextHeight = 100

# initial text height value
print textEntity.TextHeight

# some manipulation
print textEntity.GetBoundingBox(textEntity.Plane).Diagonal.X

# height defaults back
print textEntity.TextHeight

Here is the output:

100.0
519.565217391
1.0

Thanks in advance :raised_hand_with_fingers_splayed:
