Solved: Weld symbol elbow length

SteveJI · ‎Feb 07, 2023

Hi all,

Is there any way I can shorten the length of the elbow in my fillet weld symbol?

See attached image.

Thanks

Changing the length would require modifying the symbol file or creating a new symbol file. Both of which are usually not an option to maintain a company's drafting standards.

There is always more to learn in Creo.

Hi,

probably the elbow lenght is fixed. Check symbol definition.

Hi Martin, yes it looks fixed.

There is no option (that I can see) to change the length
