iso weld symbol for staggered weld

I am using Creo Parametric Release 10.0 and Datecode10.0.4.0

How can the standard ISO weld symbol be used to show a staggered intermitant linear weld. When you add the values for num_of_welds, seg_length_linear and pitch_dist_liner the numbers cross over the staggered Z part of the symbol. There seems no way to move the Z or space the values using spaces to staddle the Z. The symbol is a standalone annotation in the drawing and not used with the weld fuction.

Hi @rgrant 

 

This is a known limitation, dynamic resizing of weld symbol is only applicable to ‘Weld feature symbol’ not for inserted symbols.

I hope this will help.

 

Thanks.

This is just an example of the values, stagged welds would normally be symetrical. If you play with spaces you can get 1 example which works, but it is not just a case of just adding the appropiate values
