solidworks notes with flags...
(OP)
I hope this is one of those small things in SW that I’m simply overlooking, but I cannot find a way to remove the excessively huge line gaps in my notes when using flags….
My new company requires flags on notes using the triangle where we put a triangle with number next to or pointing to something in the drawing with a corresponding triangle over the appropriate note number which explains what’s special…
So when I use the feature built into the note tool, it creates excessively large line gaps where the note is lengthy enough. This becomes a problem in busy drawings where space is limited
Is there a way to fix this?
Attached is an example where I drew red arrows pointing to the offending line gaps…

lightweight, cheap, strong... pick 2

That is pretty darn picky.
I have uploaded a block for your reference.

Felix7502, your tip actually works and will probably be the best solution.

<PARA bordertype=2>
<PARA findent=0 number=off bordertype=0>
<PARA findent=-10 number=on ntype=1 nformat=$$. nstartNum=0>
bordertype=2 creates triangle
findent=0 adjust to your note indent
My bullets show -10, 10,10. I would adjust my findent to 5.
The 3rd line turns the bullets back on.
Perhaps you can use this info to create a macro.
