Tabular Note field
Tabular Note field
(OP)
Hello,
I am attempting to redesign the drafting templates we use. One area I was interested in updating was our change history area. Currently we use lines and floating Note boxes. However I started playing with the idea of a tabular note in it's place. The question is; Is there a way to have NX(8+) show the more advanced Note field(s) dialog (that includes symbols and GD&T) when editing a tabular note field? I know symbols can be typed by hand and work in the tabular note, but the dialog only shows a few characters, and it would be nice to have the symbol buttons available to the user. Can it be done?

RE: Tabular Note field
Have you tried GD&T symbols and they didn't work? because it seems to me like they should.
You may need to create the statement in the annotation editor and cut & paste it into the table cell.
