CREO ELEMENTS DIRECT DRAFTING ANNOTATION QUERY

Hi,

 

     I would like to know how a radial arc length dimension can be shown in a drawing view in creo elements also would like to know how circles or any isolated lines can be made hidden or removed from a main body surface in a drawing.

 

Thank you.

If I understand well, you want to attach arc dimensions to points that do not exist. Then I propose to cut the part in two which will create edges in the circles. I you do not want to have several "virtual" parts instead of one "real" part, you can use the "imprit" command.

Hello Friend,

 

    Thank you very much for your valuable effort for letting me know about hide button option. But still when speak about my arc length query, I would expect to get more information about how the whole process of adding an arc length in a given drawing view is done. Somebody please explains this step by step with some drawing examples.

 

Best Regards,

Arjun.

Fly over the first point of the arc. The arc and the first point are highlighted

Click where the mouse pointer is (not necessary to click right on the first point). You get an elastic between the first point and the mouse pointer.
