Remove "Center punch" from the shop drawings

Posted Wed, 10 Nov 2010 16:42:40 GMT by Chris Hammer

I am trying to set up some drawing styles. We wish to remove "Center punch" from the shop drawings. I have done this in each style. But when I run the process "ANSI C" they show up anyway.
Same thing happens when I try to add dimensions to shear tabs. I can get them to come in indivdually but when I run the process they don't show up.

Thanks

On the shear tabs when you make the joint uncheck the create marking box and that will remove the punch mark on the details. Its under the plate and bolts then select plate layout and the the bottom box. That was how I removed it on mine. Then i setup a library for shear tabs that has it fixed by default

Hello,

In order to remove the punch mark representation from a drawing process, you need to

- remove the representation from the drawing styles used by the respective process.

- use the drawing process from the same category as the modified styles / process that uses those styles.A drawing style modification is done in the "User" category, so the process that has to be used needs to be in the same "user" category. This means that you can't use the link buttons on the toolbars to start a process, as those will call it from the "Advance" category, and the process has to be started from Drawing Process Manager.
