Multiple lines for custom prop desc.

[dutch7777]

Whats the best way to do multiple lines for say a
drawing title in custom props? I've seen a tip
that you can type ALT-0010 after the text and it will
give a second line. This way seems a little hard to
control.

If you're on SW 2006 you can size your text box so the text will wrap. It's easy, all you have to do is keep typing.

I did a quick tip of this. You can find it here

Rob, unfortunatly I'm stuck with swx05 with no hopes
of upgrading anytime soon...

If you're stuck with '05 then I believe you're stuck with Alt-0010 (or Alt-0182).

There's a macro that will establish a word wrap length for you in 2005. I'd put the code here, except it has a form. You can download it at
