View label centralised

Hi All,

 

Please could you tell me if there's a config setting that I'm missing to centralise my section/detail view labels by default. I have this line in my dtl file:

 

default_view_label_placement BOTTOM_CENTRE

 

but they consistently still default to "right".

 

Thanks,

 

Andy

May be a simple thing...

the value should be "bottom_center" and not "bottom_centre"

Andy,

Assuming you changed your .dtl file, did you reload your updated .dtl file into your drawing?

I don't mean just to open the drawing, you need to physically reload your .dtl while in your drawing in order to make the new settings take affect.

I believe this should provide you with what you are looking to do, even with existing view labels. If not, try creating a new view.

Hi Ron. The labels are still not central, even in new drawings. The .dtl isn't related to the sheet format template, is it?

the drawing will do a one time read of the .dtl file.  it will only update when you force another read.

hmmm, let me look some more....  you working in creo?
