Does anyone know if and how characters can be added in the "symbol palette" in detailing mode?

You can create special symbols. Pro/E represents special symbols with standard ASCII characters.
To use special symbols in drawing notes, follow these steps:
- Enter the sequence <CTRL-a>
- Enter the ASCII character that represents the special symbol
- Enter the sequence <CTRL-b>

When creating a new symbol you should either redefine an existing character to the new symbol, or create a new special symbol font. It’s possible to add new special symbols to the font file, special.src by defining the graphic representation.
