When Putting in a datum target in 2D drafting in NX the text is a mess inside of this target feature.

Is there settings so I can get consistent Datum target callouts?

In I-Deas it was all automatic and worked really nice.

Please see pic the one on the right was done in I-Deas

Thanks

At the bottom of the ID Symbol dialog, in the section titled 'Settings', there's a button labeled 'Style'. Select it and you will be directed to a dialog where you can set such things as the 'Text Justification', 'Character Size', 'Line Space Factor', etc. You may also wish to adjust the 'GDT Frame Height Factor' (try changing it to 1.000) as this can also help to format text which is to be seen inside of a symbol to look better proportioned, such as in this case.
