RE: User Defined Symbol-Flag Note with two decimals

Where did you get that .sbf file?  It's does not appear to be one of the standard ones which we provide.

That being said, it appears that whoever DID create it assumed that there would be no more than 9 'flags on any one drawing (10 if you start with 0).  Get whoever did the current one to create for you an additional one which will allow 2 places instead of just 1.

To an Engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

RE: User Defined Symbol-Flag Note with two decimals

The creation of 'User Defined Symbols' is covered in the Help files.

However, since you're using NX 7.5, you may wish to create these as 'Custom Symbols' instead.

While 'User Defined Symbols' are still supported (even in NX 8.0), their days are numbered...
