Special characters in Change Notes

[jkramer]

Hi,

Is there a way to use special characters in the Change Notes of Workmanager???
If I type a diameter sign in the Change Notes, for example, by typing <Diameter> or \210 I will get this text in the text block of my Annotation drawing instead of the desired diameter symbol.
Only if I choose Text > Edit, click on the text, and choose Apply, the text will be right.
But the next time I loead the drawing, the text will be wrong (because it updates all text references, obviously).

Does anyone have a clue??

Thanks!
Jaap

Use alt codes for example alt+0216 will give the diameter symbol Ø. press and hold the alt key and type 0216, let go of the alt key and the symbol shows up. I know this works for Model Manager. I am not sure about Work Manager.

Good Luck

Tom

Other Codes

alt-0169 ©
alt-0174 ®
alt-0177 ±

Note that you must use the keypad only for these to work.
