Remove Ordinate Leader Lines

Remove Ordinate Leader Lines

Remove Ordinate Leader Lines

(OP)
Hi All,

Can anyone tell me how to remove these annoying ordinate leader lines? I feel like I've dug through all the menu options to no avail.



In case my upload doesn't work, I have leader lines going from the ordinate to the dimension (perpendicular), which are really cluttering my drawing. Any guidance would be much appreciated.

RE: Remove Ordinate Leader Lines

What version of NX are you on?

RE: Remove Ordinate Leader Lines

(OP)
Sorry about that. I'm on NX 7.5.

RE: Remove Ordinate Leader Lines

How annoying !
I really on't think the default should be "on".
I haven't worked with ordinate dimensions yet in NX7.5, so I am glad to see this before I did.

Thank you guys for your help! I finally got rid of those pesky leader lines.

My mistake was with object selection. I had been trying to edit the style(Show Dimension Line checkbox) of the individual dinmensional callouts rather than editing the style of the ordinate itself. Makes sense. Thanks again.

RE: Remove Ordinate Leader Lines

I assume that the default setting comes from the customer defaults.
The "show dimension line"=on is the ISO-appearance.

What is your customer default setting : Drafting - General - Standard - Drafting standard = ?
- I guess that is can be avoided by setting this to ASME ?

Regards,
Tomas

As I had it, Drafting Standard = ISO(Shipped)

I've already changed the drawings in question, but I will use ASME(Shipped) for my drafting standard in the next drawing and see what happens.
