Hole table tags

Hole table tags

Hole table tags

(OP)
How do I change the hole table tags? The options are numeric or alpha, but I get both (A1, A2, etc). If I re-insert the hole table, it starts over but with B1, B2, etc.
I don't see a setting anywhere to change this.
Thanks.

RE: Hole table tags

Does the Scheme > Combine Same Tags option not do what you need?

CBL,
Thanks, but no. It changes them to all to the same tags "B".
I'm not sure why there isn't a setting to tell it to start with whichever tag I want.

RE: Hole table tags

Can you post an image/sketch of what you are trying to achieve?

RE: Hole table tags

Do you not have the "Start at" option?

RE: Hole table tags

Oops ...

RE: Hole table tags

I didn't think it was, and I couldn't see anything in the "What's New" files.

RE: Hole table tags

(OP)
Thanks.
Yes, I tried deleting and re-inserting. It comes in the next time starting at the next letter tag. It doesn't give an option not to, or change to another letter.

RE: Hole table tags

What letter is used after the table is deleted, the drawing saved and closed, and a new session of SW is started?

RE: Hole table tags

(OP)
It changes to the next alpha-numeric each time.
First time A1, then B1, then C1, etc.

Thank you.
I have to wait for our parent company to upgrade. Should be very soon.
