I have this as a device ID for an attribute PWS1004 (BY OTHERS).

I was wondering if it were possible to put a certian character like you do for underline %%U to make it look like this.

PWS1004

(BY OTHERS)

I would like to stack it like this without redrawing the block.

If anyone can help I would be gratefull.

Thanks

I doubt you can do this just by editing text. But in AutoCAD 2008 you can define an attribute as multi-line (see the checkbox in the ATTDEF command) and then fill in multiline texts (line break is \P).
