Is this goofy or am I <G>

Is this goofy or am I just missing something obvious Open the IDW, and add the REV sketched symbol Enter the propmpted entries, and ok out of the dialog. Notice the Date to the left, and the rev to the right of it. Now edit the field text, and notice that the values you put in for Rev Letter and Rev Date are swapped. -- Kent Keller Autodesk Discussion Forum Facilitator

Yes, this is goofy. I noticed that I could fix the symbol by editing the field text. I will make sure this is in our system. Thanks, Harold

Kent, Do you have a pre-R9 version of this file? Harold

Hi Harold This is the R8 version. I did change a lot of stuff in my sketched symbols when I migrated them to R9. Figured since I was doing all the Styles stuff anyhow, I might as well clean up some of the sketched symbols. So I don't think it happened on migration,... was probably when I was editing it? -- Kent Keller Autodesk Discussion Forum Facilitator "Harold Lee (Autodesk)" wrote in message news:413e5c3e$1_1@newsprd01... > Kent, > > Do you have a pre-R9 version of this file? > > Harold > >

Speaking of flaky prompted entries: did the problem with formatting prompted entries get fixed also? That is, when placing a prompted entry in a title block or sketched symbol, I am unable to override any character formatting: typeface, size, bold/italic/underline. This only occurs for prompted entries, not for plain text nor for property fields. My attempts to change the size of title block prompted entries result in the entry appearing to have the correct size, except for the opening < . When edited, the characters "\F5;" appear before the prompt text. When the prompted entry is filled in, the displayed text reverts to the standard. -- Sam Bixler Eli Lilly and Company, Indianapolis "Harold Lee (Autodesk)" wrote in message news:413f42a9$1_1@newsprd01... > Good news Kent. > > A colleague of mine has just verfiied that this issue has been fixed in a > in-developement version of the software. > > Harold > >

Sam, We are painfully aware of this defect and other defects concerning editing of prompted texts (references 561766 and 587688) Unfortunately the fixes will not make it into R9Sp1 but will be incorporated in a later release.

Thanks for the reply, even though it is bad news. There are workarounds, so we won't be dead in the water. -- Sam Bixler Eli Lilly and Company, Indianapolis "Bob Van der Donck (Autodesk)" wrote in message news:414071d1$1_1@newsprd01... > Sam, > > We are painfully aware of this defect and other defects concerning editing of prompted texts (references 561766 and 587688) > Unfortunately the fixes will not make it into R9Sp1 but will be incorporated in a later release. > > Bob

Harold,

Sorry, my bad - the machine in question was NOT up to date, it was pre-SP1.

Thanks anyways.
