NX 7.5 - Drafting - Underlined Text not clear enough to be read.

NX 7.5 - Drafting - Underlined Text not clear enough to be read.

NX 7.5 - Drafting - Underlined Text not clear enough to be read.

(OP)
View Label Is there a way to increase the spacing between the underline and the Text? How? Currently underlining the view labels and notes the line bleeds into the text making it illegible. I need some space And help. Thank you, Susan.

Yea, I know what you mean,
I think the best you can try is to change fonts, and see how that helps.

and change the line width

Hi Jerry, changing fonts did not help. I went so far as to edit the text, under Formatting I typed in the View Label, enter, and added the appropriate symbol on the next line, closed. Then RMB, over the View Label, Style and changed the Line Space Factor to say 0.05, any smaller than that makes no difference - plenty of space now! I was hoping for something better.

Do you forego the underline? That is where I am headed.

RE: NX 7.5 - Drafting - Underlined Text not clear enough to be read.

What I did is put the font in medium line width and the underline in thin line width, and it worked better, let me know if you are interested in that trick.
I prob won't be back on here until tomorrow.

I found another post ( http://www.eng-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=233949 )
with a special font "blockfont_strike-thru.fnx" that I copied where NX is installed ( UGII/ugfonts folder )
It works just fine !
