    Datum Axis tags are A MESS

    I found that in the view that you need a Datum Tag symbol, which is usually perpendicular, a Note with a Triangle rather than a Arrow point works nicely. Gary

    Text symbols

    dgallop, this really helped me, thanks! One more question on this. In the custom symbol set up, how does the Var Text option work of the custom symbol attributes? Is this a raster image of text that is not actually text for the end use? Would it possible to have text that is modifiable for use...

    Text symbols

    Wow, really great info! Thanks. I'm still hoping that I can find code for a few more symbols that I would like to include inside of notes if possible. A ejector pin and some Parting line symbol. I've been getting around this in wf3 by positioning symbols on top of notes which works, except when...

    Text symbols

    Really great, Thanks jmadd. To be a bit more inquisitive, I'd like to ask if you know where all of the code is from? Gary

    Text symbols

    I would like to know more about Pro-e text symbols that are not readily available in fly out menus. I would especially like to know where the codes are defined. I use some of the codes for symbols like those in GDT control frames and have gotten by so far but I'd like to improve. Right now I...

    Table file save as location

    Thank you all again! The method used to select the table was not correct, the function gave no error message on saving the table nor was a table ever saved. Using a LMB mouse drag window to select the table rather than a LMB pick to select table graphically seemed to be the same as a select...

When I save the Table as a table file I do not have an option to point it to a folder on my computer. I do...

    X section definition lines

    Michael, I did find that out about moving the views to do what I wanted. That really frustrated me for many hours. I really wanted to thank you and the others again, you guys really are great and I appreciate your replies. Gary

    X section definition lines

    Thank you for your help. I see that the problem I have is that the section view and the defining view are on separate sheets. Gary

    X section definition lines

    Michael, thank you for your reply. You're right about Kicking myself... However I'm still missing something. I only want to show the section lines that define the cross section shown in another view. Using the view arrow function the view is sectioned, but the section line is shown, arg... I...

    X section definition lines

    Is there a way in a drawing to show the lines that define a section made using X - section in part modeling?
