odd display in constraints manager

for the last couple of weeks now I have been noticing that whenever I enter a equation for a hole location in a part as w/2, the \"w\" comes up as some funky character that looks more like some hyroglyphic or something than a \"w\". I'm attaching a picture of what I mean.

also have noticed that since the equation ability was added to the constraint manager, once you enter an equation for a dimension the actual equation part (+ or -) is never displayed. if you enter an equation such as \"h/2-9 15/16\", it gets displayed as \"h/2 9 15/16\". The division sign usually gets displayed, but the plus and minus never do.

Mark
Is this with any cabinets or just one or two of them? I would like for you to post or email me a cabinet to cabinets@thermwood.com. I will take a look at it and get back with you.

Thank You
Justin

Mark,

I'm not sure if you realize it or not, but the equation you mentioned needs parenthesis \"(h/2)+or-(9 15/16)\".

Justin, I have emailed you a cabinet that has these issues.

Michael, the constraint manager drops my parentheses from the display as well.
