Allow text style changes for Surface Finish symbols in detail drawing.

Allow changing text styles of surface finish symbols.

 

I again find myself not being able to use the full functionality of detailing within Creo as intended where a client requires text thickness and an alternate font.

 

Surface finish symbols will not follow any of the config.pro or <options>.dtl settings to confirm to the needs of my customer.

This may actually be a longstanding bug. 

I copied a surface finish symbol (standard.sym) and used it as a custom symbol and it took on default text properties (set in the <detail>.dtl).  I am not sure if I changed one of the text style attributes or not to make this work.

A second change needed for the surface finish, it needs to be "text" because of ISO standards that use commas (currently not allowed)  IE: "1,6" Ra uM
