Override dimension value
Override dimension value
(OP)
Hi,
Now, this should be a SUPER, Super simple thing to do, however I cannot seem to locate the function in NX5.
I just want to create a dim(any type), and simply remove the "value" and replace it with whatever I want.
I want this functionality for making presentation type sketches.
Example- Apply a dimension to a slot (shows up on screen as 0.500"), NOW, I want to get rid of the "0.500" and replace it with "mill this area"... You know, for a presentation type exercise.
Now, please don't suggest using a note and please don't suggest appending the text;I would like the dim to be gone.
Thanks,
JAY

That was exactlly what I needed.
I had a feeling it would be really simple.
