Adding Symbols to Dimensions
Adding Symbols to Dimensions
(OP)
How do you add a symbol as a prefix to the dimension value.
I want to add the rev number to those dimensions which are updated on the revision. For example I would add a '1' in a small circle as a prefix to the dimension value so that it can move with the dimension.
I tried adding &sym(REV_NOTE) as a prefix in the dimension properties but it appears as typed in the dimension.
REV_NOTE is a symbol, circle with '1' within.
Any help appreciated.

I used the OFFSET command in the Note command.
It worked a treat!
Thanks Very Much.
What a great Website this is!

Edit -> Group -> Relate to Object and select the dimension you want your symbol to follow as the Host Object.
