NX 7.5: place balloons manually

[drir]

Hi, how can I place balloons manually in a drafting in NX 7.5? Under Insert > Symbol I can only choose 'Custom' or 'Define custom symbol'

Thx

Use...

Insert -> Annotation -> Identification Symbols...

To an Engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

Hi John,

Under Insert -> Annotation there is no 'Identification Symbols' in my NX 7.5.

Thanks

Make sure that you're using a Role with 'full menus'.

Hi John,

I checked under Tools -> Customize -> Options and the full menus was already on. Still I can't see 'Identifications symbols' under Insert -> Annotation.

I have it in my menu as well, so there's probably something wrong on your part.
Anyway, you could use the command finder, that way you can at least place them.

It is really strange that I can not see it in my menu. But oke, that is also a way to find it ;-)

Thanks

When I said check you Role, I meant to go to the Roles 'tab' on your Resource Bar and make sure that you've selected one which indicates that it includes 'Full Menus'.
