TIP: How to create colored drawing text

[Garret_H]

I stumbled across this fun little workaround that lets you create colored text inside of a Fusion 360 drawing.

If you copy text from another program (AutoCAD in my case) and paste it inside of the text editor in Fusion it will now be in that same color.

If you don't have AutoCAD you can also use Microsoft paint, just use the text command in there and paste your text in, then change the color.

All your modified text will know paste in the different color. VERY useful when doing drawing markups or identifying revisions.

A bit of a pain but it will help until a proper feature is implemented.

This is wacky and brilliant!

My coworker just found this hack solution by accident yesterday and I just about fell on the floor when she pasted in colored text copied from Bluebeam Revu markups on a set of drawings she was revising in Fusion 360. 

@olivia.struckman can we get a color picker inside Fusion 360 drawings?
