Good day, and Happy Holidays...
I am having an issue with my BOM table not reflecting the angle symbol. I have not found an answer for in the forums or online.
It seems I have been able to copy and paste the angle symbol from AutoCAD into the BOM Description in configurations and it seems to have worked in one drawing. But it seems when I tried to repeat the process in another drawing the symbol is represented with a square. (see image)
Now I do notice that the two texts in the drawings are indeed different. BUT when I try to make them alike, it says they are. When I delete the table and set all text to romans and reinsert the table it does the same thing. (Actually it doesnt look like it is changing to romans text)
Anyone have any input on how to address this?
I attempted to insert a geo-tolerance symbol but it is a monstrosity compare to the text.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Hello,
It's a Unicode character: ∠ - Angle Emoji (U+2220) - Unicode® Character Table
RomanS_IV25 supports it and for the font families that don't, it's a square:
Don't forget to use Character Map:
Also, it doesn't appear that SW likes RomanS as it's not listed:
But it is on my computer as it shows for Char Map (with all chars grayed):

EDIT:
You mentioned AutoCAD, is the RomanS you're posting about a non-TrueType font, such as Romans.shx?
This may be the issue if SW is struggling with an old shape font.
Even if not, SW doesn't appear to like RomanS as mine is a TrueType font (the "TT" shows in Character Map) by SW doesn't list it.
