Nono... I meant write a note that is independent of the hole itself. You might be able to assign some of the variables in a note, but even that has gotten harder.
My favorite method is to use a radial dimension and edit to a hole note. That way, the leader will remain normal to the edge.
I also a issues with the SAE callouts where spaces are added at the dash (UNC-2B reads UNC - 2B). Funny enough, there is a way to avoid the excess spaces:
Re: Tips for text Also found this: If you have a string of variables like in hole callouts, you noticed that you require spaces between the end of the variable and new text characters. This is why you see... &THREAD_SERIES - &THREAD_CLASS UNF - 2B ...a text string which is obviously not to any standard that we as engineers accept. But there is a little known method to remove the requirement for the space: {0:&THREAD_SERIES}-{1:&THREAD_CLASS} ...which returns UNF-2B Old school editor but this is what makes it work. Why didn't PTC do this for the hole CALLOUT_FORMAT? PTC, are you listening? This is what "we" call fit and finish |
I know we have discussed this before but I need to find it again.
