Note outline

Hello

When I create notes in a clip and apply an outline to it, if the note is on multiple lines, an outline is created for each line and not on the entire note.

It's all the more strange that I encounter this problem on only one of the stations where SdWks is installed. I can't find which parameter to change.

Thank you for your help.

Hello@cde_1

Stupid thing you can try.
If you do a carriage return (enter or input) it considers that they are two distinct paragraphs, hence the contours for each line.

On the other hand, if you do shift+enter (shift + enter) then it's a line break in the same paragraph (like in word, and most messengers and text formatting software, ) and therefore it shouldn't generate a new outline since it's the same paragraph with several lines.

Keep us informed if it works ;-)

Kind regards

@Zozo_mp: it's Ctrl+Enter but it doesn't change anything

So it's vicious, there are 2 ways to put a box around the text:
- either we check the box in the feature manager when the note object is selected;
- Either you select text in the note, and using the same Feature Manager checkbox, you can apply a shape to that text. But indeed whether it's by entering or ctrl-entering, the 2 lines are framed independently.

Hello @cde_1,

There are two ways  to put a box around the text  as @ stefbeno pointed out

To have a text on several lines, use the ENTER key

  1. Note in edit, we will frame the text select
  2. Selecting the note via the left click, this will frame the note as a whole 

Small addition of information, it is possible to center the note, add margins on the sides

Dear @stefbeno :-)

[HS ON]

It's shift +enter I persist    ;-)   and not ctrl +enter which is without any effect.

You could try it STP you never know because it's a windows feature and not software as I was told. A windows routine is weird isn't it :-)

Lieber Herr @Zozo_mp,

I'm sorry to contradict you (in part):
- on this forum, Word, shift-enter does indeed make a line break and not a paragraph break (easy to test: the line spacing is not the same);
- on XL, shif-enter validates the current cell and moves the selection in the opposite direction (i.e. upwards in case of default settings) than if you do Enter. Alt-enter allows you to make a line break in a cell.
- on SW, shitft-enter shows me a nice square:



and ctrl-enter (applied here before doing shift-entry) makes a line break:

Sorry Zozo_mp but same behavior as stefbeno on the shift+Enter!

Hello @stefbeno and @sbadenis

Thanks guys for the checking. ;-) At least that's a square answer!

I am troubling my bad solution so that it disappears forever from the space-time horizon, regardless of the version of SW used.

Kind regards

Hi all

Thank you for your answers. After several manipulations, everything went back to normal, certainly a bad way of doing things on the station in question. The elements of the answer perfectly describe the functioning I get: the outline is made around the whole note or simply on a line depending on the type of selection.

Thank you.
