save font settings for note
(OP)
NX 8.5.3.3
If I create a note in drafting , go to the settings of the text , change the font type, color etc and then save that as a favorite. when I reapply the same text using the favorite tab the text has lost all the settings and reverts to system defaults.
Is there something I am doing wrong? Is there an alternative way to this?
Basically I want to save text to a certain size and color and quickly apply it as a note in various drafting files.
Thanks

1.First create the Save Favourite using
Dialog Options > select Save Favorite As .
Now your saved 'Save Favorite As' dialog box is displayed.
2.Now You can do the changes of your 'Note' and again save it as Favourite.

Hi Mathi ,
Thanks for the reply ,
That was the way i was trying to do it but it just seems to retain the text as a favorite and not the settings.

Uploaded is a video to show how you do that.
You can then copy & paste the group (past with a Control V) into other loaded parts.
Personally I would create your a group for each of your preferred font setting in your drawing templates.
Then when you create a new drawing using your drawing template, you can just turn on the notes you want when required.

It would be a good idea to create groups and turn them on as suggested,
I am using a macro for the note as a workaround at the moment. It works fine but I will look into using the note as a group in a template.
Thanks again for taking the time to do the video.
