Question

Showing datum points on drawings when creating a pipe

I've created a pipe using datum points. I'm able to create the table which shows the dimensional placement of the points (driven from the model) however I cannot get the datum points to show (with the name) on the drawings. I don't wish to toggle on using the display manager (that doesn't show the name of the point anyway).

    I tried to use the "Hole Table" drawing tool to generate such a table:

    It's fairly easy and painless to rename the names of the points in the pipe feature using the "Rename" dialog box under File->Prepare->Model Properties->change: Names (under Features and Geometry)

    The tags will show up if you enable their display as per Martin Hanak's message.

    But can you tell me how to (parametrically) extract the bend radius information from the pipe feature?
