Hi Hongjie...

It's been awhile since we've seen you! I hope you're doing well.

I think those symbols just mean "datum". It's a bit strange because I see a different symbol for AXIS in my layer tree although I am using Wildfire 5, not WF4 as you are. However, in my Drawing Tree which is new in Wildfire 5, I do see the same symbol. It's just used as a marker for all datums. You can see the same symbol in my drawing tree below...

Maybe in WF4 it's used for a datum created using an axis point- or created through an extruded arc? I'm just guessing because I don't know for sure. I don't think it's anything to be concerned about. I think it's just a helpful graphic.

Thanks! Good to see you here again!

-Brian

    Hi Brian,

    I am good, thank you for help!

    I am busying for our tractor improvement now, all is OK just the weathe is really hot in Shanghai.

    I created a test model and found all axis which is made by feature itself or by me all shows the stanger symbol. it looks like my office configuration decide the symbol and it is too deep for me to read the config.

    I agree it is not worth to spend time on it.

    I upload the test model (WF4.0) for fun.

    Best regards, Hongjie
