To Create Stacked Text

1. Click Drafting tab > Text panel > Multiline Text.
2. Specify opposite corners of a bounding box to define the width of the multiline text object.
3. Set text style and other multiline text properties as needed in the In-Place Text Editor
4. Enter special characters to indicate how selected text should be stacked.
   • Slash (/) stacks text vertically, separated by a horizontal line.
   • Pound sign (#) stacks text diagonally, separated by a diagonal line.
   • Carat (^) creates a tolerance stack, which is not separated by a line.
   Note: The automatic stacking feature applies only to numeric characters immediately before and after the slash, pound sign, and carat. For tolerance stacking, the +, -, and decimal character also stack automatically.

   If you enter numbers separated by stack characters and then enter a nonnumeric character or press SPACEBAR, the AutoStack Properties dialog box is displayed.

5. In the AutoStack Properties dialog box, you can choose to automatically stack numbers (not nonnumeric text) and to remove leading blanks. You can also specify whether the slash character creates a diagonal fraction or creates a vertical fraction. If you do not want to use AutoStack, click Cancel to exit the dialog box.
6. To stack characters manually within the In-Place Text Editor, select the text to be formatted, including the special stacking character, and right-click. From the shortcut menu, click Stack.
7. To save your changes and exit the editor, use one of the following methods:
   • Click OK on the toolbar.
   • Click in the drawing outside the editor.
   • Press CMD+ENTER.
