Dimension text stacking up

    When I use a leader to point to and area and add a description - the text is stacking up vertically. For example - pointing to a part and describing it as "steel ring" - when I hit the space bar to separate the words they stack up vertically as if I were hitting the return. I can't find the option to stop this - I don't find it in dimstyle (AutoCAD 2000). Sorry for not being clear in my original post.

    What is your text width set to?

    One kind of far out possibility is that the text style used for dimensioning is set to vertical display mode. Check the dimension style dialogue box you're using for dimension text and verify that the "vertical" box is NOT checked.

    I overcame this same problem by stretching the text box and slider further to the right.
