I go to Show/Erase and show axis. How do I control their size and the display of the tags.
Thanks

As far as I can tell the geometry center line is used when making a revolve. If you use the other centerline the revolve feature will not recognize it. Not sure of any other significant differences. You can also select an existing axis of revolution after completing the sketch for the revolve.
This is similar to the 2 points in the sketcher. The geometry point will create an axis normal to the sketch plane when the feature is completed.
Good luck with getting use to the drawing package. I am use to it, but I still catch myself selecting things while in the wrong ribbon. I'm hoping they did a better implimentation job in the rest of the ribbon GUI in Creo1.0 for the modeling package.

Here's a good mystery for this Friday afternoon and is something that's been bugging me awhile now. I'm working in a drawing and then I elongate one leg of a hole axis to show that it is on the same plane as another hole (Picture 1). So far so good - In the drawing file the center lines look fine. The lines aren't touching as you can see one is highlighted in blue.. When I create the PDF the lines merge (Picture 2). Thought it was a graphics thing but the drawing actually prints with the center lines merged.
Any ideas what's causing this or how to correct it? Creo 2 m040
I think that what you have been experiencing is a case of the line font being adjusted for true plotted size on the drawing. Take into consideration what the centerline font "should" look like for a plotted drawing. IF the hole centers are less-than 2" apart there may not be enough line extension between the holes to show a centerline there. OR, you have centerlines that are plotting on top of each other. That's kind of what it looks like to me.
