Detailing: ASME view callouts

I've posted this in a couple of areas, including CS and Ideas.

Problem is the extra space character in detail view callouts and section view callouts.

I don't know if this was always this way and I just hadn't noticed it, or if it was accidentally introduced recently.

Now that I know about it my OCD kicked in and "I MUST SAVE THE WORLD!" by ridding every detail and section view of superfluous spaces.

Please tell me your version of Pro/E, WF, or Creo doesn't behave this way...

    Yes, mine acts the same way (WF 5.0/Creo).

    It's always had 2 spaces. In the old days, you had the parens, so it was:

    {0:DETAIL }{1:A}

    This made it easy to make the "A" a larger size (for us, .250").

    Now, it seems they made the parens generally invisible, and you only get the parens when you change the size:

    DETAIL {1:A}

    In some instances it works a little better, but I think in more cases, at least for us who use different sizes, it's a little more cumbersome. Not too bad, (unlike the ribbon), but enough to be a little annoying.

    lol Antonius... "I MUST SAVE THE WORLD!"

    I get this all the time. In fact, this is my explanation for why I'm always here answering questions. I see someone in distress and no one's helping them... "I MUST RESCUE THEM!"

    Maybe I need therapy.
