In general, text that relates directly to the model is created in model space—dimensions,

leaders, and so on. However, annotation that applies to the entire drawing, such as title block

text, can be, and often is, created on the paper space layout. Change to a text layer and use

the DTEXT or MTEXT command as usual.

 

Sometimes you create an object in model space—perhaps some text or a logo—and want to

move it to paper space. Or vice versa. For example, you may want to move a text label that

you inserted in model space into your title block, which you inserted in paper space. The

new CHSPACE command makes it easy to move objects from one space to the other, without

worrying about scale differences.

 

The CHSPACE command was previously part of the Express Tools and has been brought into

AutoCAD and AutoCAD LT.

 

To move an object in either direction, follow these steps:

1.

Display a layout. You must be on a layout to use CHSPACE.

2.

Switch to the space where the object that you want to move resides. For example, if

you want to move text from model space to paper space, double-click inside the viewport

containing the text to switch to model space.

3.

Choose ModifyChange Space.

4.

Select the object that you want to move.

The command scales objects to maintain the same visual appearance. The amount of scaling

depends on the scaling of the viewport. If the viewport scale is 1:1, no scaling occurs.
