RE: Text in modeling/drafting
1. Put the modelling text onto a seperate layer and use the "VISIBLE IN VIEW" drafting command.
2. Use the "VIEW DEPENDENT EDIT" option and simply delete the text from the drafting view.
I personally use the "VISIBLE IN VIEW" command all the time to control what shows on my drawings.

Model the text into the solid body and you won't have this issue.

RMB the View ( or double click) Style... - Hidden Lines - Include Model Curves ???
It should not need any Solid / Surface type data to work.
It might take a little extra time to process if the model is large / complex but apart from that it should do the trick.

I use method mr. J.Baker offered : extrude text with 0 length and place text curves in other layer.
RE: Text in modeling/drafting
If the text is created as a "Note" in Drafting it doesn't work.
If the text is created as "Insert - Curve - text" in Modeling, it does work.
The text in the image looks like a Note.

RE: Text in modeling/drafting
Look at the attached. It seems that system hides only whole symbol, and cannot hide part of it (red circles in the picture)
RE: Text in modeling/drafting
But when i move the text such that only part of the character should be visibe NX either keeps the entire character or erases the entire character.
