(OP)
In a drawing view that has a center mark for a diameter's axis, is there a way to quickly make the center mark larger, so it extends further out? It seems that whenever I do a SHOW...AXIS...in a view, the center marks are very small and I have to maually go back and extend them to make the center marks I want.

Thanks.
Oh yeah...the version is 2001.

FredGarvin,
Give this a try....
While in drawing mode, select the "Show Axis" icon on the top of the screen.  You should now be able to grab the axis number tag (rectangular box) and resize the axis.

Hope this helps.

I also forgot to mention....
There are two options in the .dtl file that will automatically size the hole axes to a preset size:

axis_line_offset  and   circle_axis_offset

Thanks for the info. I will give them both a try.
