centerline setting

[helpersnx]

I'm looking for the centerline - line type setting.
In the customer defaults I found color and line weight.
But nothing to control the line type of centerlines.
TIA/regards

As far as I can tell you can only make a "centerline" with a centerline font.
Maybe someone can suggest something better for you if you explain what you need.

The best you can do is edit the 'Centerline' font.

Regarding the centerlines, sometimes i need to pick the intersection of 2 centerlines, but if those lines are not actually crossing then you cannot pick the intersection?
So what i normaly do, is adapt the distance between two dashes so that the lines cross, but then you got a centerline what looks like a normal line. Is there some setting or a way that i can pick the intersection without adapting the centerline font?

Best regards,

Using NX 4.0, if the two curves, irrespective of their font, do not actually intersect in 3D space, you can still create a point at the apparent intersection, relative to the current WCS (the point will be created where the second curve selected is projected along the Z-axis onto the first curve) but ONLY if you're creating a non-associative (dumb point).
