I am a new user and this is my first post on this Forum. I am looking for an app to create fairly standard single line diagrams.

To start with I imported a single line from a dxf file similar to what I intend creating. Optically it looks OK but some work to do to make it usable.

My first question: The MText objects imported together with what looks like formatting information and I am wondering if there is a setting that would show just the text e.g. a Locale setting. Alternatively is there an easy way to remove this additional text or do I need to select each one individually and delete the unwanted info?

Here is an example of the text:

\C7;\fCalibri|b0|i0|;\H1.3228843688965;2 x NH3
500 A

This is the text which should be displayed:
2 x NH3
500 A

The rest "\C7;\fCalibri|b0|i0|;\H1.3228843688965;" appears to be formatting or reference info that I would like to suppress or if that's not possible remove.

Any suggestions?

Regards,
John
