Re: DieMan44
I am on NX4, and the toolbar next to the Annotation Editor is Annotation Stle. There's no icon for Annotation Placement.
Here's what I am doing:
1. I select the "Annotation Editor" from the drafting toolbar.
2. I then select the first icon on the left of the toolbar, which brings up the annotation editor.
3. I pick the datum -A- icon, which inserts the text to create the datum callout.
4. I pick on the entity I want to attach this callout to. It defaults to a hollow arrowhead.
The icon to the left of the annotation editor icon in my toolbar is called Annotation Style. I hav eno button for Annotation Placement.
When I right-click on the datum A note, I can select the Style menu. As I mentioned, there are umpteen variations on the leader line arrow, but no suction cup.
Aren't people out there using the 1994 standard for attaching datums? It's an inverted filled triangle, about 3X the size of a dimension leader arrow.
