Bentley View Help

Preferences Dialog, Text Category

Consists of controls that are used to set preferences related to Text Labels.



SettingDescription
Fit Text If off (the default), Bentley View places fitted text by enlarging or shrinking the characters of text so that they fit between two data points. If on, the size of text characters is determined by the Active Text Size (Height and Width), and the text is fitted by increasing or reducing the spacing between characters.
Justify Enter Data Fields Like IGDS If off (the default), the odd space in a center-justified enter data field containing an odd number of extra blank spaces is positioned at the beginning of the enter data field — for example, _ _ A B C _. If on, the odd space is positioned at the end (as in IGDS) — for example, _ A B C _ _.
ED Character Sets the text character that denotes each character in an enter data field — by default, the underbar (_).

Change this preference if you do not want to place text elements with underbars.

SET EDCHAR CHARACTER
Degree Display Char(acter) Sets the ASCII character used to display the degree symbol (°). The default is 176.
Constraint Font Size Sets the font size of the dimensional constraints text size. The default size is 12.
