Weld symbol ID line missing
Weld symbol ID line missing
(OP)
We have a welded assembly and one of our engineers wants to add weld symbols with the dashed ID line over the top. However in the assmebly drawing when he tries to add a weld symbol the toggle switches and indeed the dashed ID line are not there as part of the menu (see left hand image). However, this problem only relates to this one assembly, if we open another assembly and add weld symbols, then the ID line and toggle switches are all there as shown in th right hand image. I have searched for settings but without success. Any body have an idea where this is going wrong?
Many thanks in advance

Life shouldn't be measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the number of times when it's taken away...

This is from the Help Docs...
Identification Line Top - For ISO and DIN only. Displays the dotted line above the reference line.
Identification Line Bottom - For ISO and DIN only. Displays the dotted line below the reference line

I'm not sure how you would change this for an existing drawing.

This is a royal pain in the @ss because it is a 20 sheet drawing with nearly 300 weld symbols in total. A job for a student me thinks!
Thanks for the help.

RE: Weld symbol ID line missing
I too faced this problem in a drawing. As Simon(JCBCad) said we have to remove all the weld symbols in that existing drawing & change the Cusotmer default-Utilities-Drafting-drafting standards-Cutomise standards-in weld tab change to the desired you need. Then save the customer defaults & from tools pull down menu select Drafting standards choose the standards to load. Then do the weld symbol. It will work. This worked to me.
