Dimension Text - X after &P

IE_1 — Thu, 20 Feb 2025 17:43:50 GMT

Hi,

Having some issue trying to get dimension text to display as intended, I'm trying to get a custom hole note to show:

6X etc etc......

I'm using the hole &P number, but as soon as I try to put the X directly after &p132 it will not display.

I'm not sure what modifier I need to use, hopefully someone can help.

Thanks.

Because you are not using spaces, Creo is assuming some type of formatting.

Try separating the &P with brackets:

{0:&P16}X&d13 ↧&d11

Thanks, that has solved my issue. Out of interest is there a guide anywhere that details all the text edits in CREO?

I knew that when Creo changes what you typed in it doesn't like the combination/format. So, I tried separating the offending text.
