I don't recall leader vertical alignment ever being available while CREATING a note, but after it is finished and deselected, reselecting allows the change. I'm still on 2010.
I'm pretty sure this came up in the SWX forum thread about drawing annotation formatting from a couple of months ago.
Instead of using "Current View", when you get your assembly view aligned as you want press the spacebar and create a named view. Then in your drawing use teeh named view. You can create as many of these named views as you need. For the moved parts view, you will still need a new configuration...
In 2009 & 2010, create a property tab table using the Property Tab Builder. One each for Parts, Assemblies, Drawings. No need to go to File>Properties. Only include the ones you want on mode's tab. You can still access the others the older way if needed.
But do they have to be visible on the drawing?
If you've done your rev table correctly, you can hide the early rows without deleting them, thus keeping the history within the file, but only showing what there is room for.
The Custom Properties Tab requires a separate .xxxPRP file for each module of Solidworks. They should be different based on what properties you want to have & control in each.
Its COPIERS that the Fed limits RE 100%.
Every laser printer I've had at work had the same problem, stretching in the direction of paper feed. When I print the same job on the roll fed large plotter it is dead on. Every plotter we've had has done this.
Most printers wrap the paper around...
Copy the properties.txt file from your system to the network folder in your settings, then make sure all your users are pointing there too. That way everyone will be using the same properties. You can then also use the Propertiy Tab Builder to provide everyone with an easy to use interface to...
ewh, this is why we stopped putting BOMs on drawings 30 years ago. The only true bill is the one in the ERP system. It drives purchasing, inventory and everything else. The BOM from the CAD program is almost certainly going to be incomplete.
FirstCap looks good too, and free is best. Unfortunately it says it doesn't work with Vista, so it's out for me at lease. I'll have to shoot the developer a query about that.
Wow, gwubs! That's just what I wanted. I never saw that when I was Googling. My guy says he has his version mostly working, so I won't take the wind out of his sails.
It doesn't force typing in all caps, but a coworker is developing a program at my request that will set Caps Lock/Num Lock on or off to the user's predefined preference when an app gets the focus from Windows. So, set SWX caps on, Word, email etc. off, etc. When you tab between apps, the locks...
If by "sticky" you mean SWX performs your yes/no choice in future without the dialog box, it isn't sticky at all. All the "don't ask" check does is prevent the error message from appearing. Since it cant find the file nothing gets loaded there, and you don't get a chance to find & load it...
