Fraction Display

[Cadman]

I am trying to use fraction measurements is a drawing and some of the
fractions don't display correctly. If I use 1/4, 1/2, etc. they display fine
but if I use 1/8, 3/8, etc. they display differently. Is there a tool in
Visio 2003 Pro that controls how fractions are displayed?

Thanks

How are the fractions used?

Are they text fields that display dimensions? If so, select the text and
choose Insert > Field to modify the formatting.

Are they displayed in the Custom Property Window? If so, right click in the
window and choose Define Custom Properties to modify the formatting.

I gave this a try and had no luck. Then I chose Insert>Symbol>Mathematical
Operators and picked the correct fraction symbol from the list.

Thanks for the help.
