Text Sizes

(OP)
Dear Folks;

I'm using desktop 6 and I have created a drawing with multiple views and details. When I dimension the drawing the text height and arrow size is .120 using the std AM_ANSI dimstyle.

Unfortunately the detail circle and its text are much smaller. Also the welding symbols text size is too large.

The Item numbers and balloons were too large but I was able to adjust the the size through the BOM properties dialog box.

I cannot find any way to adjust the text size properties for the detail circles or the welding symbols. I've checked through mechanical properties on the assist menu but I cannot find any adjustment for these values.

I was expecting that the text height for welding symbols, detail circles etc would be related to the text height for the drawing and would not require any adjustment. Can anybody shed some light on how I could solve this problem ?

Best Regards
