Superscript Bug ?

[Steve Jepson]

There may be a problem with the Superscript indicator of custom dimension text.

See picture -

Look closely at your custom text settings.
I can duplicate this if I press the superscript button twice.
Just delete one of the indicators.

You look at my picture more closely.

Of course I double checked this before posting making sure I did not add a space, dbl entry, etc...
This is something that does not work correctly on my computer. Possibly related to the font being used.

It works as expected for vertical Superscript, it does not work as expected for horizontal Superscript.

note also that adding the first Superscript notation adds 1 visible mark - adding a second one adds no additional visible marks - adding a third will display 2 marks.

Steve,

In your vertical Dimension Custom Text there is a SPACE after the Superscript sign.
In your horizontal Dimension Custom Text there is no SPACE after the Superscript sign. Try placing one there too.

[Steve Jepson]

I have. It makes not difference. It works as expected for vertical Superscript but in the Horizontal Superscript the indicator shows up.

Curious.
I cannot reproduce this in my ARCHICAD copy (AC19 INT with US dim settings).
Anyway, I will report this to Graphisoft.

In my case, if I add a space prior to the horizontal Superscript the indicator does not show up. With out adding a space before the Superscript the indicator does show up.

Don't bother to report it. They have hundreds of far more important bugs to fix. This is trivial. I only post it incase anyone would like to know what is necessary to compensate for it - if it should happen for them.

Add a space before the Superscript indicator if the dimension text is horizontal. Easy fix.

Here is a horizontal dimension text using Superscript with not space before the indicator and it works fine. And this is in the same drawing. ??

It must be some setting or configuration I am using. ?

This video shows two horizontal dimension texts. One needs the space before the Superscript indicator, and the other does not. ?
