Leader Text in Drawing

2 Things:

 

1. How can I have a text box like we have in AutoCAD grab the corner of it use it to wrap up my text accordingly rather that hit Enter to split the text?

 

2. How can I add diameter symbol to my text

2. Text symbols are found here (see image) or type Alt 0126 Ø (must use the numerical keypad, not the number row at top of keyboard)

The answer to your number one question is... you can't. Leader Text does not have the 8 grab points to change the size of the text box. Work-arounds could be inserting Text and changing the size of its text box, then place an empty leader next to or near to the text, or edit the Leader and paste in the text. Annotation Text also does not allow you to turn on and show the box surrounding the text, but Sketch Text does, but Sketch does not allow you to make Leader Text. Go figure?

Thanks guys,

 

Such a pity :( with regards to Text box

I seriously don't know why they haven't developed those cool features from AutoCAD in Inventor!!!
