How to setup Rebar Text label attributes to stay

Hi Nicole, 

Thanks for posting your query over the Bentley Communities Forum. 

I have been able to re-produce your issue and am working to find a solution / workaround for the same. Please allow me sometime.

Hi Nicole,

You need to set your Text Style as Default Text Style in Rebar Defaults. Please follow the below steps to get this done.

1. Under Concrete Workflow in Drawing Production Tab go to Rebar Defaults and click on Text Defaults.

2. In the Text Defaults Dialog you can set the Text Style.

3. Then you can update your Text Style, say Update in Change Attribute dialog under 2D Rebar

Please note that one more thing, the default text attribute is saved in the dgn file so you do not have to set it each time in that dgn. But in a new dgn it will pick the attribute from the seed file, so to have it in each new dgn, the seed file needs to change.

Hope I have answered you completely

Please do let me know if you have further question on this.
