NX11 - Drafting: custom parameters/text in hole callout preferences and distance section label
NX11 - Drafting: custom parameters/text in hole callout preferences and distance section label
(OP)
Hi,
I've got 2 questions for NX11 drafting:
- Is it possible to add a custom parameter/text (for instance 'minimal') in the hole callout. I would like to be able to add 'minimal' before thread depth (but not always), instead of modifying the tolerances?

- How can I change the distance of the section letter to the actual section line. I would like to have the 'K' closer to the arrow. The indicated distance value does not seem to work.

However, I'm still wondering who could help me with the first question? Or is it impossible to add a custom parameter/text to the hole callout parameters? And if it's impossible, why can I not just add text in between the hole callout itself, but only before or after the complete hole callout?

You can add a suffix for one of the parameters.

The settings menu is still cumbersome, but this might do the trick for my colleagues. Thanks!

Also, if you're using any templates, those will be file specific and the Customer Defaults will not control those settings.
