text override and control characters
text override and control characters
(OP)
I use the next code to add a tolerance to dimensions with “text override”
<>±\S1/4;"
The <> is getting the original dimension which is ¼ inch. (stacked format)
And the next part of the code gives me the ± tolerance with a stacked format also.
Now I have to do the same but my tolerances are different each other, one is -1/4” and the other is -1/8”.
I could use the next formula
<>\H0.6x;\S+0.25"^-0.125"
But this formula gives me the tolerances in decimals.
How can I do this but with the tolerances in fractions stacked?

RE: text override and control characters
try: <>+\S1/4;-\S1/8;
Should get you what you need.

RE: text override and control characters
<>\H0.6x;\S+0.25"^-0.125"
but instead of decimals, have fractions, but keep the tolerances positive over the negative.
With your formula the positive is next to the negative.
What i want to do is something like this:
<>\H0.6x;\S+¼"^-½"
But I cannot do that for fractions that are not included in as a caracter in the fonts(1/8 for example).

I think you have to use ACAD Mechanical ose...
Or you can make an own Dimstyle, but that's without fraction stroke too.
