Hi everybody,

Could anybody tell me how to combine manually added callouts having their separate leaders, lets say for example a bolt and washer, into horizontally aligned 2 callouts with one leader in NX 7.5?

Many thanks,

If they are manually placed than you will have to do it all manually yourself.

However, if the callouts were created automatically then you simply select both of them, press MB3, select the 'Group Horizontally...' option and hit OK.

And to create automatic callouts, just select your Parts List note, press MB3, select the 'Auto Balloon' option, then select the desired view and then hit OK. Now you can 'group' the callouts either Horizontally or Vertically using the above technique.
