Modifying Dimensions to add Text
-
At Basecamp I was standing with Solo and someone told him that in addition to being able to add text to a dimension, he explained how to make the text more than one line. But I can't remember what he said to do.
Pete?

Hi Bob,
When you edit a dimension or text type \n to jump to the next line.
for example, 31.5cm \n Bob James would read
31.5cm

Bob JamesSuper: Just what I was looking for.
Really great to hear from you Rich
Don't you still need the <>?

I went, I read, but I didn't see what you are referring to. (Hidden clue??) (Is this an Irish thing
) -
Hi Bob,
The
31 cm \n Bobwould not be a dynamically associated dimension any more (i.e. if you change the size of what you dimensioned, it would not change).That's what the <> is for. So instead of typing in the 31 cm value, type
<> \n Bobto keep it dynamically associated. -
That's it!!
Thank you Rich/Csaba

looks like Dr.Csaba beat me too it! As for the link, it shows me a tip on the bottom of the page that says.....
Tip: Type \n followed by a space to start a new line of text (Microsoft Windows)
No hidden clues, no secret agenda, like i said, you never stop learning...

And so I learnt it from Wodan (I think - or someone else...)?

Honest, Rich, when I clicked on the link it did not take me to the "real" link
