SolidWorks drawing notes and tables
SolidWorks drawing notes and tables
(OP)
Am I missing something or is there no easy way to do numbering and flags on drawing notes?
Many of our drawings have 10 to 20 notes on them, which can be cumbersome to lay out. I've always placed all the notes that are in one column in a single annotation, then placed another annotation to the left of the notes for the numbering. With note editing not being dynamic WYSIWYG as of SW2001+, it's now more challenging to get the spacing between note numbers correct. Also difficult is using flag notes. Our company uses the 5-sided flags, but placing them requires a fair amount of tweaking.
Do anybody have any nice tricks for this?
Also, when needing a wiring table in a drawing, what uses the fewest computer resources, a Word Table or a Spreadsheet? Or are there better methods?
Thanks,
Tim

RE: SolidWorks drawing notes and tables
My suggestion would be though to submit an enhancement request... see how it works is that they prioritize things by volume of submission the squeaky wheel gets the oil if you know what I mean.
They key is to submit submit submit if you want to escalate something! Teamwork!
