Strcture Name slash character

[Ajilal.Vijayan]

The structure name under C3D strucutre properties dont allow '/' character.

Eg:- If I want to name a structre like MH/5899/05/01, this is not possible if I am entering from C3D strucute properties dialogue box.

But can do from Autocad Strucutre properties or via lisp routine.

The '/' character changes to '_' (underscore) if taking C3D structure proprties.

Also sometimes close and reopen the drawing change the '/' character to '_' for some structures.

Any ideas ?

 When I take the Strucutre properties the Struture name slash character changes to '_'

 MH 6/8/9 changes to MH 6_8_9

No clue, sorry.
Strikes me as being similar to the bug where cogo point description change from uppercase to lowercase:

This is an extremely wild guess. But try two slashes //.

I'm not sure how the text is controlled, but it is probably dtext or mtext and as such a %%047 should display a slash

and %%092 is a backslash
