Drawing note properties

Hi all,

does anyone know if it is possible to edit the properties of a basic drawing note, in such a way as i can have the individual words different heights. For example, lets say i have a note that reads "drill & tap M8". I set the text height for the note to be 4mm, but i want to have the M8 portion of the note 6mm tall.

Can this be done?

Regards

John

Yes. The first thing is to enclose one or all parts of the note text in curly brackets, to divide it into sections:

DRILL & TAP {1:M&d27} (or {1:M8}, of course)

or

{1:DRILL & TAP }{2:M&d27}

Then:

  • OK the note Properties box
  • Select the note (single click)
  • Select the section of text you want to change (single click again)
  • RMB -> Text Style
  • Change the size, font etc. as required and OK

Note that we don't use preselection highlighting, so the exact selection technique may vary slightly.

HTH!

Thank you Jonathan,

i knew there must be some way of doing it. I just tried doing the same with sketched text in part mode, i does not appear to work the in the same way, which is a shame.
