Arrow sizes

[jadieki]

Hi,
We are struggling to associate arrow sizes on text leaders and section views to the view scale, all our arrow heads are so small we can not see them. Is anyone aware of a setting that scales dress up features with the view.
I thought it was a setting in tools : options but we can't find anything.

You need to modify the drafting standards. The link shows how to start Catia in admin mode (not the user logged in as admin)
Then Tools --> Standards --> Drafting

Don't suppose you know specifically where in the drafting standards we have found the length of the arrow but it doesn't seem to affect it

 

[DBezaire]

Start a new drawing and see if the arrow size changes. Catia copies the standard into the design when it is first created. You can update the standards if you go to File --> Page Setup.

Thanks for your help w have sorted it now, it wasn't working as we have disabled FILE:NEw to force users to use our standard starter models

i dont know if that will help,

you can always "explode 2D Component" ( right click on arrow/object(arrow)/explode 2D component )

should bring you back normal arrow for your selection

hope this help!
