    Tabular Note Format Question

    I am using NX 9 (til the end of the month) but I don't think that will make much of a difference The best option I have found so far is the <Br> control character But that has to be entered manually for each line and doesn't allow for auto wrapping.

You can fix it by turning hidden lines off in the view, VDE the line in question (which should show up now) to a solid line (instead of original), turn hidden lines back on and VDE object segments...
