Stacking Text
Stacking Text
(OP)
In ACAD, I was able to stack text so that it would look like a stacked dimension. However in DraftSight I don't seem to be able to do this. For example, Drill 7/32" Dia. Holes - Typ. 4 places. I want the 7/32 to be horizontally stacked. Does anyone know of a workaround for this seemingly minor problem?
Thanks! :)
Thanks! :)
