I would like to know how to make the line showing that an instrument is in a control panel be exactly in the middle of the bubble.
I don't know why, but the line is offset.
See the attachment
Thanks for your help.

Larcla,
Did someone change the insertion point of your IBUB block?
You may want to check there first.

I have changed the insertion point of the xdin_ block.

I just changed the insert on the xdin_ block and the line stayed in the middle.
Did you check your IBUB insert?

How can I check the IBUB insert? It's not a block.

My bad I meant the actual IBUB block?

IBUB is not a block. It's all seperate entities.

The instrument bubble is inserted as a block, but gets exploded, so it can be broken if the text doesn't fit inside.
The location line is also inserted as an exploded block, and gets trimmed inside the bubble.
The block for the single line is CINST Maybe that was changed ? it happens sometimes when 3 lines of text must fit in the bubble.

I had to recreate the CINST block from the file PID1.dwg in order to have the line centered in the bubble.
