NX6 Datum Target Custom symbol

NX6 Datum Target Custom symbol

NX6 Datum Target Custom symbol

(OP)
'Datum Target' Custom symbol filled areas do not appear correctly filled anymore (see picture)...
Any reason/fix for that?

RE: NX6 Datum Target Custom symbol

Looks like someone has edited the templates Drafting Preferences.  Open the original template files and see what the hatching looks like.  If it's not what you expect, edit it and save the file and start over.

John, where may I find those 'templates Drafting Preferences' ?

RE: NX6 Datum Target Custom symbol

if you add such a symbol in the insert dialog there is an option says part default or definition use defintion and the problem is solved. For John I liked to have this setting controlled from the customer defaults
hope it helps

Great, thanks

RE: NX6 Datum Target Custom symbol

Preferences are used so that they can OVERIDE Customer Defaults, which some organizations do not allow their people to change (Preferences can NEVER be 'hidden' from the user).
