Hello,

I am aware that I can enter text inside drawing table cell using API ProDwgtableTextEnter().

Manually, One can add text symbol into cell of drawing table by following below steps:

  • Double click on cell of drawing table and Note Properties menu will open
  • Click on Text Symbol and Text Symbol menu will open
  • Click on required symbol and click close button

I would like to know how to add text symbol into Drawing table using toolkit.

Thanks in advance!

Regards

Ketan

You enter it as ^A (control-A) then the character code for the symbol in question (for example 'n' for diameter) then ^B (control-B).  For example:  "Hole is ^An^B20 mm".  If you are not sure which character is right, make a note using the text symbol palette, and Save Note on it, and examine the resulting file.

    Hello,

    Thank you for this suggestion.

    I tried with text as "Hole is ^An^B20 mm" through toolkit to write it into table cell. I regenerated drawing sheet also, but it does not change to diameter symbol.

    Am I missing something which need to be done?

    Thanks and Regards
