Ply orientation in drawing

[BC_10219589]

Hello All,

I am trying to create a drawing for a composite layup, does anybody know how can I add the different rossette symbols to indicate the direction of the plies?

Thank you in advance,

You can create custom symbols as required. See this link to get started with creating them. You can import IGES, DXF, SET, and CGM files into the symbol creation tool if you already have geometry.

When doing wood ply, I just do a dimension. Change it to "PLY DIRECTION @O" using the dimension text box.
