Title Block and Annotations doesn't accept unicode?

I can't type 'ç' or 'ã' and so on in annotations and title blocks.

 

Also, I don't find anyway to change the language of the Title Block headings.

Hi hezog,

 

Thanks for reaching out.

 

I confirmed with the development team. The Unicode support in title blocks is a known limitation in Fusion 360 (tracking ID: FusionDrawing_68769). The plan is to support Unicode for input in everywhere not only in the title blocks.

 

Regarding the second question, unfortunately, the answer is No. We cannot change the language of the Title Block headings at present. It’s also in our backlog for improvements. Your feedback (and others’ on this community) is very helpful for us to prioritize the list.

 

BTW, you may read the post below for the drawing plan in next update:

Thank you for the info, Nicolas.
it's weird for us non-english speakers, internationalization in software is pretty much a given these days, I was surprised by the limitation, seemed like I was back in the 90s!

Thank you! Sorry for taking so much time to reply.
Yes, I've noticed it 😉

Now, if only we could have customizable drawing templates, or use our own drawing templates, as companies usually have their own designs on how they like to present drawings.
