Associative placement of a drawing note
Associative placement of a drawing note
(OP)
Hi folks,
I have a drawing note which I need placing associatively in space in X and Y relative to a view symbol. I can find how to do either associatively in X or associatively in Y but not in both. Hence if I then drag the label in both X and Y, the note only moves in one axis.
How do you do it? ...I'm sure this is going to be simple but it beating me right now.
Many thanks
Dave

Edit -> Annotation -> Orgin -> X-Y (lower left icon)
Follow instructions in dialog box
RE: Associative placement of a drawing note
This will allow you to associate your note to another object. Pick the XY offset option and make sure you turn on associativity. In the dialog there are X and Y "scale factors", I think "offsets" would be a more accurate description. Enter the distance to offset in the X and Y directions.

Sorry for the basic questions. I've not long returned to using NX. I last used it in anger with NX3 in 2004 so as you can see I'm a little rusty ...I was pretty good back in the day though!
