Possibility Of Mixing Standards?

Possibility Of Mixing Standards?

Possibility Of Mixing Standards?

(OP)
Hi all and happy Friday to you!
More drafting question(s) and I hope you can help!
Ok I'm trying to standardize everything I've been using and keep it in one of my very own xml files. So far everything is good however I ran into a hiccup. Catia won't allow me to use an ANSI welding symbol in my ISO standard drawing and they are noticeably different. Any way around this or does/will Catia keep them completely separate no matter what? I would think that if in Admin mode I should be able to freely pluck whichever one I wanted to use then move on.

THanks for looking and hopefully help as well!

RE: Possibility Of Mixing Standards?

Oops my mistake I kind of goofed that up some. I'm trying to create a new drawing standard file. I'm starting with the ISO.xml file which should do the trick. However the sheet sizes are all metric sizes and I can't use those. I need to change them (and a few other standards) possibly to something that may be ANSI.
When I'm modifying the file I don't have the option to add any English page sizes. If I could do at least that then I may be able to work through the rest.

Thanks again for looking and thanks for any help you may be able to provide me with!
