Drafting steep slopes in x-sec

I can’t figure out when I’m drafting x-sections for it to say 0.5:1 slope, it keeps putting it as 1:2.00

looks like to maybe a simple text in a PDF app. I have been loving the use of Bluebeam to add text instead of doing it in TBC.

I believe that TBC always converts the first or last number to a value > 1 i.e. 0.5:1 is 1:2 and 1:0.5 would be 2:1, I don’t think that you can override that anywhere, it will do 1.5:1 or 1:1.5 because both values are > 1

Out of interest why is 1:2 bad in this situation?

Just use to seeing .5:1 on plans not 1:2.
That’s all. I’ve never seen 1:2.
