NX7.5 Drafting - Box around view label
(OP)
One of my requirement in NX7.5 drawings asks for the view names in view labels for section, detail and other views should have a rectangular box bounding the text. if view scale is enabled, it should be outside the box and below view name. Can anyone suggest some inputs here?

Suggestion by Xwheelguy is fine, thanks. But I want this view label with box should appear as an option while enabling view label and scale.
Looking for some journal or a macro help.

You might be able to use Tim's suggestion and update your preferences to add the symbol text necessary. Back in NX 2, we added some similar text control characters to our view labels, so I'm pretty sure it is possible. No macro or journal would be necessary in this case.

another question:
is it possible to create the box with some gap from the text? Like the box should have a gap of 3mm from all four sides of text.

If you're wanting more than what I pointed out above, I'd look into Custom Symbols with editable text and associate the Custom Symbol's origin to each view. Draw the rectangle, add text then create a Custom Symbol from it.
