proper crosshairs on holes
proper crosshairs on holes
(OP)
Hi All,
New user here trying to uatomatically have Pro E put a normal crosshair on hole in drafting. Currently when I use the show all commands crosshairs come in a variety of size and all need to be resized just too look normal. Also I must some are so small that I have to zoon in to adjust. Huge pain.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks
Mike

RE: proper crosshairs on holes
If your holes are concentric with other circular features, you are having to resize because crosshairs of the other circular features also appear when you select the show all command. Instead, use the show by feature and view option so that only crosshairs for the holes appear.

I also want them to look correct. Currently they are 2 crosssed lines. They should be 2 crossed line with leaders extended past the edge of the holes. This will only work if I manually make the crosshair really huge. What bothers me is that this has been a drafting standard for more years than I care to remember and so far of the 7 or so CAD packages I used this is the only one that doesn't know that. When I asked our AE he said called them axis'. Strange to me.
Thanks

There are two drawing set-up options that control the appearence of axes:
axis_line_offset
circle_axis_offset

Also, the dimension lines go to the center of the corcles, and therefore, overlap the axis.
