Hi, here is a picture of my screen.  Inside the text box are a bunch of symbols that are from  the pull down menu.  You see in the pull down all of the rectangles, and the + - as well as the degree symbol.

How can I make the pull down show a preview of the symbols so I don’t need to create and print a map out for what each rectangle is? 

Also, is there a way to added other symbols to that list?  I am wanting to use the diameter symbol but it is not shown here.

To see the symbols in the dropdown you have to change the font to Spaceclaim ASME CB or Spaceclaim ISO CB rather than Century Gothic. I donlt know of a way to 'add' other symbols to these fonts. There may be other fonts out there that have the symbols you need. Hope that helps.

Hi Gary,
In the font list there is no such option to select such font, Can you please help me where to do it from?

Here is a response to a similar problem. I could not upload the font files myself to share.
