Radius dimension arrow display in Creo 2.0

Radius dimension arrow display in Creo 2.0

Hi All,

 

I would like to set my radius arrows to lead to the radius centre point, as per ISO standards:

 

I have set my .dtl file to "radial_dimension_display std_iso" which matches the example in the PTC online help files here. However, my dimensions are still displaying with no leader, as per "std_asme". Any pointers, please?

 

Many thanks,

 

Andy

Quick nudge: can anybody help, please?

Andy,

I do not have access to any listing of the ISO standard for how the dimension lines for a radius dimension should be drawn, but if you need to move the arrow's position to meet standard, try using the "flip arrows" option under the right-click menu for the dimension (or use the shortcut for this which is to right-click while you are dragging the radius dimension with the left-mouse-button held down).

On the other hand, if the issue is the text orientation, the config option to look at is default_raddim_text_orientation.

Thanks Larry. I've been using the flip arrows in the meantime to get the desired result. It's a bit of a shame that the result of the config option doesn't appear to do what it says it will, but I'm beginning not to be surprised by Creo's idiosyncrasies!
