Hi,

Anyone know of a way to change the annotation size in Maya? I need it larger for some previz work.

TIA

As far as I you you cannot change the annotation font size. I tend to parent a text curve under the annotation transform. With a bit of scripting you can use the annotation text to drive the makeTextCurves node. Bevel output is easy to work with (and it renders).

I was hoping that I could add an attribute or something. I ran across a solution at this URL, but the development looks dead.

I wish my scripting was up to par, because I would try your approach.
