View names with subscript. How to change it.

(OP)
Hello all,

I am adding new section views on a drawing in NX9 and I am getting "subscript" names. See picture. This is a new one for me. I also cant seem to change the name to a dual letter style. e.g. AA,AB,AC.

How do I fix it so I dont get subscript and how to I set it so I can use dual letter names like AA,AB,AC?

Thanks everyone!

Sorry John it wont let me add it... I think the fun filter at work is getting me smile.

The view is coming in with a name of for example D1 inline or D1 with 1 as a subscript. I cant change it to lets say AB, AC, or AD. I already used A-Z.

Thanks!

You mean you can't even attach a simple image file?

In your drafting preferences, check the "secondary indexing" and "secondary indexing alignment" options.
