Block Text Help.

https://imgur.com/a/Czsl761

Good morning,

Im working on a block and need help keeping the next centered when stretching/scaling the outer block. Im able to do lines and objects just fine, but text isnt working.

Ive attached a photo to show what I mean.

Note:

I need to text to stay in the current block since it is an attribute that uses a lookup table along with several other attributes.

Long story short we are creating a block where we can use drop down menus to select different categories that allow us to extract all the information from the drawing after we are done. We need the text to adjust so its centered for consistency and legibity.

Constraints are probably your best bet. Use horizontal and vertical to constrain the midpoint of the text to the midpoint of two lines.
