Date phrase without quotation marks?

Hi there,

is there a way to get date phrases without the quotation marks in diagrams?

Usually I don't use them (for which reason this question hasn't come up before), but now I've been asked to format a diagram in a very specific way.

In the forum, I've found at least two messages from the past years asking just this, and neither has been answered. So I suppose there is no way (except, of course, putting the information into freetext note fields, which would make it redundant but possible)?

I don't think so, but if you have the time and the inclination you could use 'standard dates' rather than phrases and use expressions to build the date in the format you need.

Hi Jane,

uh. I'd have to think about that. Thank you for the suggestion.

In the meantime, I just put all the necessary info into note fields and adapted the diagrams to that; redundant and clumsy, but it worked.
