Question

can't add symbols to note ...sometimes

Has anyone seen an issue when you can’t add text symbols to a note in a drawing? The text symbol box pops up, but when I click on anything nothing appears in the note. For example, I can type “FORM UP 90”, but can’t add ° no matter how many times I click on it. To make it weirder, after I finish the note, I can go back in and edit it and then add ° without a problem. Is it a Creo setting? One of those neat little Creo features?

Thanks,

Phil

Since there is no further info given:

#1 guess - a Spacemouse is in use. There's a history of odd interactions with the Spacemouse software

#2 guess - there's a display driver problem such that the Operating System is not telling Creo about the click event.

It is not a feature of Creo and there's no 'setting.'

We have had this issue as well and it turned out to be the NVIDIA setting. See article CS28315:

Changing the setting resolved quite a few issues we had been seeing.

Thank you for the article. Unfortunately, none of the setting changes fixed the issue.
