Adding Standard note to drawing.

Adding Standard note to drawing.

Adding Standard note to drawing.

Hi,

Can any one give me the GRIP program to add the standard note to the drawing?

RE: Adding Standard note to drawing.

The way that you're asking this question it sounds like you have a specific program in mind. Could you please be a bit more explicit as to which 'program' that you're talking about or perhaps describe where you've seen this 'program' being used or refered to? If what it is is that you're asking for is a general capability to add 'standard' pre-defined notes to a Drawing, we would recommend that you utilize the 'Reuse Library' for something like that.

RE: Adding Standard note to drawing.

Hi Bambila,
As John already mentioned you can use some OOTB utilities in drafting for doing the same.You can even create a note inside a 1 row and 1 column table and save it as a template.
This template can be added to the resource bar and can be dragged and dropped whenever required.

There are much better methods available today than the GRIP program NOTES that was written in very early UG2 days, 20 years ago.

You can drag and drop a .txt file from windows onto your sheet to add a note

John, You meant to say on an Excel Sheet. Dragging and dropping a .txt file on to a Drawing Sheet does not work.

RE: Adding Standard note to drawing.

It works, just that you have to be dragging the .txt file onto the face of a Drawing, at least it works in NX 8.5.1.3.

I can confirm that dragging a text file onto a drawing also works in NX 7.5.0.32 and NX 8.0.3.4. If you don't like the drag and drop or it doesn't work on your setup, there is also an "insert text from file" option in the annotation editor (text input -> import/export section).

You can use the resource bar to point a folder notes and drag&drop directly from there.

Thank you...

Hi All

Thanks for your quick reply.
John, I do not have any program with me right now, actually I was thinking that GRIP program could help me on this.
I decided to go with other sugestion like draging .txt file or Reuse Library rather GRIP.
