Is there a ug font that contains the circle r, or that will accept alt+0174 and other alt combinations?

RE: Fonts in NX5 and above
It may or may not work in the font that you are using - change the font of the "$z" to "blockfont" if it is not showing up correctly
a tip: do a search in Help > Documentation > enter "symbols and text control characters"
and what you get should help you

RE: Fonts in NX5 and above
Thanks for posting the crib sheet.
RE: Fonts in NX5 and above
The crib sheet is ONLY valid with Blockfont as supplied by Siemens.
John has posted a modifed Blockfont file that has additional characters that are not on the crib sheet.

RE: Fonts in NX5 and above
Can you tell us about the alt+XXXX combinations ?
Is that ascii based?
RE: Fonts in NX5 and above
To be more clear: attribute Gauge=$r .125
expected text line Ø .125
actual text line: $r .125
RE: Fonts in NX5 and above
I am going to play around a bit to try to make it work, but I would love to hear if John Baker has a solution.
RE: Fonts in NX5 and above
attriute Gauge=<O> .125
that's a capital o (not zero).
Hope it helps.
Best regards,
Michäël.

RE: Fonts in NX5 and above
I tried the <O> as well. That too isn't working.
Jerry,
Yes, they are ascii combinations. For instance, if your font is iso1, and you type alt+0176 you get ° (the degree symbol). You can find the alt combinations in windows character map. NOTE: not all characters are supported.
RE: Fonts in NX5 and above
Thanks for the ascii tip ... that is good stuff

RE: Fonts in NX5 and above
When you create the link to the attribute the string that is shown in the test editor will look something like...
<W@ATTRIBUTE_NAME>
...and the result will be non-evaluated. However if you were to edit it so that it was...
<W&@ATTRIBUTE_NAME>
...then it would be evaluated (the edit involved adding the '&'). I had forgotten about that until someone just reminded me of it.
