Does anybody know how to type/insert a special character in Label? A "diameter symbol" or a "plus-minus" for instance?
Thanks in advance!

Find character map; Start/Programs/Accesories/SystemTools/Character Map.

You find something like this there: ALT0177 is ±, ALT0248 is ø and so on ...

Here is a tip if you don't work well with codes and numbers (like me )
Go to Dimention Tool - Vertical Dimention and place a Dimention for ±0.00. Then select just the text, open it and Copy the plus-minus character. Close the window , type your text and Paste it. For angles use the Angle tool.
Actually this is how I inserted plus-minus here
