I'm using SW Inspection 2015 add-in and I'm trying to figure out why Inspection doesn't recognize some Solidworks symbols, it puts like a rectangle, see image
Has anyone seen something like this? It exports the rectangle instead of the centerline symbol, I don't know if it is a recognition issue..

Hi Diorella,
That's probably because SOLIDWORKS Inspection uses a special font to be able to have this information into Excel.
This special character is probably not supported. Please contact your reseller so he can open an bug report.
Thank you,
Matt
Yeah when i copy and paste, I get:
¤ 5
or screenshot:
There IS this symbol that will show up in Excel:
Seems to me that Inspection should be using that U+2104 character--idk what they are using now...i think there is often some "character translation" going on behind the scenes sometimes or something.
So I guess the manual way is to export your sheet and then manually enter this ℄ character...I'm not looking forward to this :/

Does anyone have an update on this?
Vote for SPR 961198: Inspection Add-In unable to recognize interlocked CL centerline symbol ()
There's probably a bunch of others too. SW Inspection needs a bunch of updates...I can't wait to see what 2017 has!

Hi Scott,
The past few months development has been busy working on the 2017 release. We should have more time to look at this later this year.
Thank you,
Matt
