Hello, I have designed a 13Key Button gang, similar to the buttons on phones. My issue is I need to show a Japanese company where the cutoffs are on the sidewalls for the cosmetic requirements. If you have ever worked with a Japanese company they need everything spelled out perfect. I want...

Hello, My fellow Pro/E user here at our work is running across a silly situation. If he draws a cosmetic square or uses the "Use Egde" command in drawing mode to select a square this works fine. When he goes to hatch or fill this area it cant be done. He can only select 1 line at a time even...

Thank you for your replies. My dimensioning is in metric. I went back in and changed my drawing setup option lead_trail_zeros to "both" and that worked great. Now all I have to do is go back and take all the zeros out that I added manually :( Still learning, I just love this forum Thanks so...

Hello, I am having a problem that when I dimension a feature that is like 10.0 or 110.0 the drawing does not put the .0 after the number. All I see is 10 or 110. This is a problem when I have to go back to each dimension that is shown like this and add the .0 then the tolerance. Would anyone...

Hello, Thank you all for the great answers to my previous question. The problem I am having now is I needed to dimension a Button Carrier with drafts and rounds. The drawing would not dimension the rounds that are drafted. I got some great feedback on how to accomplish this. I used the...

Thank you very much for your help. I just love this forum

I am having quite a problem when trying to dimension rounds in my drawing. I have designed a button that has a 2° draft on all edges. I have added rounds to the corners and edges for ease in removal from the tool. Problem is I cant dimension any of the rounds in the drawing. Pro/E wants to...

Thanks to everyone. It did end up being the Fast HLR option. That had me pulling my hair out. Thanks again you guys are the best. John Follo
