Wrap Text Problem
Wrap Text Problem
(OP)
Hey,
When opening my drawings the text unfolds in one line, but fixes itself when loaded from memeory. This also happens when it filed in PDM, but stays this way in the vault.
See Attachment.
Thanks,

RE: Wrap Text Problem
Is this happening on all drawings or just this one?

RE: Wrap Text Problem
It's happening to all drawings and sizes because they're built off of standard templates. This started when we moved over to SW2008 SP 3.1.
Thanks for responding.

RE: Wrap Text Problem
I've seen other visual anomolies when opening/viewing drawings, parts or assemblies. If this were happening in a part or assembly, I'd say it has something to do with RealView...
Where you say it didn't happen until you went to 3.1, how about loading up 4.0? If that doesn't help, roll back to whatever SP you were on before 3.1.

And yes, this only happens in the preview when loading. Once fully opened, it's fine. I think when filing in PDM it's capturing the image in it's preview state.

RE: Wrap Text Problem
create text in a long line. then go too edit and add a hard return in the middle of it. the text box will get wider with now 2 lines. now resize the box. you can then take that box an add your CP to it. I think this is how I did it. the text will always wrap then.

RE: Wrap Text Problem
Try opening this template and go to "edit sheet" and copy my text box off of my template onto yours

RE: Wrap Text Problem
if i try to do it by editting my existing text box it wont allow me to size the box. Cant say if it will behave as your when checked into the vault. i can try it when i'm back in the office tuesday.
