notes in drawings
(OP)
does anyone know how to:
1/I want to put some notes in the draw including some external measures and I'd like to anotate the units like
mm^3 in a better way, ussing superindex and/or subscript but I don't know how to do it.
2/another thing is to include a part parameter in a note. I've tried including something like &vol as it's specified in the help but it don't works. I have a relation vol=mp_volume("") and the parameter has the correct value but it don't shows in draw.

RE: notes in drawings
Open MS Word
Go to Insert - symbol
Select normal text for your font
select the character you want (in this case ^3)
Displayed in the lower right will be alt+0179 type this in as part of your string of text.
This will work with any Windows app. Even this one see: ³
2. &vol should work. You often need to regenerate a couple of times. Also try editing the text in the note, sometimes just opening the note to edit and closing it updates the note.
RE: notes in drawings
@+ means superindex
@- means subscript
@# means normal
and I also have the second trouble. Perhaps I didn't explained myself. I have the parameter in the part and the draw has some parts. What I don't know is how to refer the parameter in the part. And what I have is an output like "&vol", as it wouldn't interpret &vol as a parameter

Find the seesion ID under Assembly/Relations/Session ID and pick the part on the screen. The session ID will apear in the message area.

This works with windows NT4, I'm not sure what OS you are using. Also by alt+0176 I actually mean, hold down the alt key and type 0176 this will give °
or ± 0177
² 0178
³ 0179
´ 0180
µ 0181 this one is useful
There is a multitude of these, just look in word as described above.
