How can you get diameter annotation orientations?
By Daniela Koloszko
In order to display a diameter callout as linear dimension and place it straightaway while creating the callout, you can follow these steps:
- Create a section view from the MBD toolbar
- Save it with the options “View Orientation” and “Drawing annotation view” enabled.
- Right click on “Annotations” in DimXpert Manger and select “Insert Annotation view”
- Create a new Annotation view based on the orientation of the saved section view
- Start a “Size dimension” from the MBD toolbar and select one of the hole edges in the section view
- As a result, you will place directly linear callout dimension, parallel to the hole axis
