Text note half-space" character?

theresa_scalia — Mon, 23 Oct 2023 11:50:24 GMT

Is there a way to use a half-space in a line of Revit text? I would like to be able to put a half-space between a number value, and the degree symbol (~~90 ⌀~~) (~~90⌀~~).

Does one of these fulfil your requirement?

Thank you. One of these space characters will work fine, I imagine, but I was hoping for something native inside Revit (characters?), only because it would need to be a "standard" for many user in various disciplines. For my personal use, this "copy/paste" method will work fine.

Best bet is if there is a Unicode character equivalent similar to the diameter symbol.

Thank you! This was the right idea ... <insert> <symbol> <other> <filter Character map to [Calibri] punctuation> <hover over blank squares until you find "hairspace"> <select> <copy><paste>. It works, but it is not something I could explain to others as a standard. It had to be [Calibri] otherwise PDF printing could result in hieroglyphics where this "symbol" is used on my drawing.
