Annotation scaling
Set the current scale of a viewport or model space view and apply that scale to each text, dimension, or hatch object. Its size, placement, and appearance will then automatically adjust based on the scale set for the viewport.
Fields
Fields are special text objects that store the properties of objects or drawings. Use them to display properties, such as the length of a line, the area of a polyline, or the name of a layout. When a property changes, the fields will update.
