Horizontal Alignment Annotations Reverting Back

This is a common problem and there is no way to prevent the update of the text.  But, there is a setting in each annotation definition in an annotation group to "manage modifications".  Set this to true.  You must then remove annotation and reannotate.  Once this is done, you can drag/move the annotation to a new spot other than the default location.  If you click on the properties field after reannotation you should see some settings for this.

Note, you must do this for each annotation definition in the group.  Also, this works for the text portion of the annotation but not the leaders (at least as of the 10.12 version)

This became available in 10.10 version.

Hope this helps.

Thanks, Marc!

Is this the correct location to toggle on "True"? I cannot seem to find the "manage modifications" selection.

What version of ORD are you using? The specific version number is most helpful

Thanks, Shawn! Unfortunately, I do not have that button. I was thinking maybe the DOT workspace was preventing that, but my colleague can see it on her screen.
