Surface finish symbol in note

[Nathan Feculak]

How can I put a surface finish symbol in a note. I don't see it in the
symbols.

Hi Nathan,

I posted this file awhile ago:

There are various symbols in there none really stating "surface finish",
but hopefully you can use one of them. The other option is to make your
own symbol if you wanted to hack around with the file found in:

"c:\Program Files\Solidworks\lang\english\Gtol.sym"

Here are the first couple symbol groups:
