Note/Annotation tool(adding symbols)

[Alderfek]

Hi all,
Had a question about trying to add symbols in a note besides the ones that are there already.
Example, <$u> is used to make the centerline symbol in a note. Are there others beyond what comes with NX that can be created ?
Im looking for symbols like +/- and </= with the symbols on top of each other as with the standard NX symbols.

Any help would be appreciated.

Also in your NX doc do a search for "Symbols and Text Control Characters"

Basically I cant get there from here and would have to do some of the custom symbols using the fractional text tools.

This is actually a better list of supported symbols, particularly as we move forward with the completion of our support for TrueType fonts in NX.
