Is there a limit to the number of configuration that can be displayed on a drawing in a design table.
My table will not display past line 62.
When I stretch the bottom past line 62 close the table it reverts back to line 62.

Hello All:
Notes on drawing are not appearing when the drawing is viewed through the viewer sometimes. I've read here that it may be the view did not support the font but this is not the case.
Our work around is to move the note to the sheet format.

Hello SW people:
Is there a way to change the reference model for the default view in a drawing?
