Diameter symbol

Hello,

I am using Creo 3.0 M120.

I have been using a mapkey for a diameter symbol for literally decades (Since Pro-Engineer 19).

I have been using this mapkey in the current Creo built.

Suddenly (I can't see what has changed) the mapkey (or part of it doesn't work).

When I select the text to have the diameter symbol, all I get now is a letter "n" as a prefix instead of the diameter symbol. I Know that the diameter symbol is made of an "n" and a sort of upside-down "L". There seem to be a problem with the second part of the symbol, the upside-down L.

Any idea what's going on?

 

Thank you

    Thank you everyone. This has been resolved.

    I modified the config.pro file and saved as Notepad file rather than WordPad. That was the cause of the problem, the file lost its formatting style.

    I had to re-open the file as WordPad and save it again.

    Why not just re-record the mapkey? More than likely some of the menu structures have changed and the sequence of actions in the old mapkey fail.
