Strike-Through Text

Is it possible to put strike-through text in individual cells of a table (or anywhere else for that matter) in an idw file.

The Inventor team would like to offer strike-through text. We'd also like a bit more detail to make sure this addresses what you expect. Here are a few thoughts I have but would like validation on:

 

  1. provide strike-through in text formatting
  2. provide design tracking control. this would allow you to preserve items normally removed during model updates such as:
  • retain detached dimension and apply strike-through when we detech detached dimensions and hole notes
  • retain hole table entries and apply strike-through when all holes for a given entry are removed
  • retain parts list items and apply strike-through when a line item is completly removed (qty = 0)

My question back is: Is the above list accurate or is this more that what you feel is necessary?

 

Thanks

Hans,

 

The primary main Smiley Wink one for me is in text formating

however the other options you list sound great,

especially being able to keep the item in the parts lits but have it srtuck through

Richard

And in INV2014 it still seems to not be possible. 😞

 

But your ideas are very good - I hope Autodesk implements this someday. One place my company uses strikethrough is in the default drawing template tolerances. We're left to draw lines using a sketch, align them with the text, save the sketch, and then change its color in the .IDW.

 

Is there a TrueType font we could load which has striketrhough?

Wow,

 

I was just looking for a way to strike out text in a table - but this list of other strike-out options would be great.
