PDF export From Drawings: AutoCAD SHX Text popup

[bostonwabrams]

I export a Fusion 360 drawing that I have made that has some Leader Text in it describing some of the holes. I view the PDF in Chrome. When I hover over the leader text it pops up a sticky note looking note thing that has the same infomation that was denoted in the leader text minus special chars. Is there a way to remove this, because it is quite annoying. Thanks!

Hi bostonwabrams,

Thanks for posting, I found a bug in our system for this (internal reference FDWG-7411).  From what I can tell this is a viewer side issue, there are no settings in Fusion to turn this off.  Which symbols are you using?  From the discussion in the bug it may be specific to text containing the depth symbol, I'll need to give it a full pass.

Thanks,
Chris

I was using Counter bore, Diameter, and Depth

OK, thank you for the information, I will add this to the bug and check with the team on what could possibly be done on the drawing side.

Thanks,

Any updates on this issue? I've got this problem when exporting to pdf with a countersink symbol.

can confirm this produces a comment popup when the counterbore symbol is present in a text box.

it does not produce a popup on say a datum point top note or bottom note line, seems to only occur on a "leader" note.

the counterbore symbol is converted to a lowercase "w" character within the comment.

the same happens when copying the text to a plaintext editor, it is represented as a "w" as well.

perhaps this conversion to a standard glyph is a hint at what is causing the issue.
