Hello All,

Does anyone know if it is possible to have solidworks set a predefined text box width, and then have the text wrap to the next line if characters exceed the set width?

I know it is alot to ask for but just wondering if someone stumbled across a macro that does this or have created one for themselves. If anyone has a work-around for this I would love to hear about it.

Thanks,

Jon (a.k.a jksolid)

It's on my short list of API projects.
 
Yes it can be done via API. I use something similar to that with my Revisions. I enter text in a pop up window that fills in the revision block.
 
aamoroso,

Does your macro work with the solidworks revision block? If so, could I take a peek at it?
