degree symbol in catia v5 wont display

degree symbol in catia v5 wont display

(OP)
How do I make a degree symbol display with catia v5
I can type in the ascii numbers and have the degree symbol show up in the text input box, but on the drawing all that shows is a underscore line.

RE: degree symbol in catia v5 wont display

What font are you using?  Try changing it.  Not every font supports all of the extended ASCII characters.

RE: degree symbol in catia v5 wont display

I think you can use the insert symbol toolbar.

Thanks jackk

as a beginner I do not know of all the available options and of cours I am under deadline pressures to push out drawings.

your suggestion to use the insert symbol toolbar turned the lightbulb on.

many thanks.

tebbec,

Make sure your current environment is compatible with the files you're working with.  If you're working from files from a customer, ask them for help in setting up a proper environment for this project.  Otherwise, not only will you have problems working with the files they send you, but they will also have problems with the files you send them.

Good luck.
Terry
