3. Describe the problem you are trying to solve. Please include detailed documentation such as screenshots, images or video.

Outline of text in drawing detail mode does not have built in dynamic feature.

Workarounds:

Manually draw shape every time I need one, inconsistent.

Make a symbol with editable text inside but is very limited as its not dynamic enough to resize with amount of text.


4. What is the use case for your organization?
Inspection information that is not a dimension needs to be in rounded rectangle

Multiple line box text in one big box not each line boxed
Symbol use to note FMEA level

5. What business value would your suggestion represent for your organization?
Time and consistency. Right now some people do workarounds this way and that. The look in inconsistent.

There are threads on threads about wanting text box outline options. This already exists in another CREO product.

One idea that already exists is for multiline text to be in one box... This idea includes that but goes much farther. https://community.ptc.com/t5/Creo-Parametric-Ideas/Create-a-box-around-text-annotation-in-Drawing-mode/idi-p/468138

Another idea nearly identical but was marked as duplicate with above... Which it was not. Only difference here is I am showing a similar feature already exists in other CREO products. https://community.ptc.com/t5/Creo-Parametric-Ideas/Improve-quot-Box-quot-Text-Style/idi-p/468105
