When Putting in a datum target in 2D drafting in NX11 the text is a mess inside of this target feature.
Is there settings so I can get consistent Datum target callouts and GDT frame callouts.
With GDT frame callouts the letters are larger than the frames.
Please help,

Thanks

It looks like the Text preferences are not set correctly.
You need to change this in your Customer defaults. also for GDT you need to do this separately

I feel your pain with these datum Targets.

Usually we make the text a little bit smaller, and change the aspect ratio to fit into the datum target.
