Control text height in configuration

    I am trying to model a series of parts using a design table. These
    parts have extruded text whose height (font) needs to vary with the
    configuration. How do I achieve this?
    TIA

    Make the extrusion height an equation based on an appropriate dimension
    in the various configurations.

    I think he's looking for controlling the Font size through a Design
    Table, not the extrusion height.

    Great question. I don't know that it can be done without getting into
    coding a macro. I've never seen a variable for font size.

    All you can do is make a separate text feature for each required size and
    suppress them according to configuration. It's the same procedure if you
    need to change what it says.
