How can AFX (framework) use predefined parameters for the automatic component drawing function?

Hallo @OS_11014878 ,

 

richtig, das geht nicht so ohne weiteres. 

 

Es gibt noch eine drawing_setup.txt Einstellung, mit der man Maße einstellen kann. Diese müssen natürlich am Modell existieren. 

Die Syntax ist z.B. GENERAL_VIEW_SHOW_DIMS B H (B und H müssten damit theoretisch in der General view angezeigt werden)

Bei den anderen Zeichnungsansichten muss man das ähnlich machen, indem man das _SHOW_DIMS anfügt. 

 

In folgenden AFX Versionen sollte das funktionieren:

AFX 9.0.10.0
AFX 10.0.7.0
AFX 11.0.3.0
AFX 12.2.0.0

Hi,

I guess you have to modify preinstalled drawing templates.

I hope @SamuelBrantner will provide more help.

Hi @OS_11014878 ,

 

the automatic drawing creation does dimension the profiles automatically. There is no special way to customize this. 

Normally all required manufacturing dimensions get created by the algorithm.

 

If you want to fully customize your drawing you can place a template drawing and place it in the customization directory. Then you can specify in detail what dimensions you want to have on the drawing.

 

It would be helpful if you can add more info to what you want to achieve.

 

I hope this helps.

I created a drawing from a profile like the default AFX profile structure but actually it doesnt even create a drawing from my profiles.

Hi @OS_11014878 ,

 

is there already a drawing existing? AFX will only try to create a drawing if no drawing is existing.
