Hi,

it's not precise enough, because single entity in the discussed context can be understood e.g. as cell or text node, which both are single entity, are able to hold texts inside, but are completely different.

to make them single entity with a click is that possible ?

Yes and now. Did you try to search this web for the same discussions?

You can group elements into cell using Ctrl+G.

It possible to follow this wiki article (easy to find) how to use (quite old) tool txt2node to convert texts to text node.

The conversion is not automatic, because it's pretty complicated process (maintain position, define an origin etc.), but it's simpler than to rewrite the text.

With regards,

no i don't want to use group if i use Ctrl+G the text is just grouped and the text is not in a single entity but just grouped and i don't want that . please check the dgn file i have uploaded. i want to make it completely editable text with single entity. thanks for answer.

i am trying to select text but it does not select another text to make them both node

You have misunderstood the purpose of Text Stitcher.  It does not convert text element(s) to a text node.  It accepts two text elements and combines them into a single text element.

yes but it did not taking 2 texts please check that file

I just ran it. I read the prompts in the lower left corner, and it told me to pick my first text. I found it had to left click twice for each piece of text. Kind of like - once to select it and another time to confirm my selection, and the same for the second piece of text.

Here is an edited version of your DGN file.  I copied your table, then used Text Stitcher to combine text elements.

Well, it could be slicker ... but this is freeware.  I don't plan to work on it any more. 

The VBA project is unlocked, so anyone can edit its source code to improve its operation.

I still think select all and paste into text editor and put a return on each second line is much quicker and works to make one big text node.. yes the vba is good but nothing wrong with giant text node it has exactly the same font and line spacing is exactly the same as original text.. If my  boss saw me doing it  line by line even with the vba macro he'd tear me a new one...

Yes Lorys you'r right doing it manually is best option for now.
