I cant find the following default settings:

1. leader arrowheads are not filled. I cannot find that default setting.

2. Turn off auto centerlines in drafting.

Can someone point me to the right default settings.

thanks

Both of the defaults you are after are part specific settings.
This means even if you set them in the customer defaults, they most likely will not work for you depending on how you have your drawing templates created.

Images below show where to set:

Filled Arrows (you must select a drafting standard to customise, then set the setting and then save & use that newly saved standard.

It may be better to open your drawing template files and edit those via the drafting preferences and then save the parts.
This way the preference is set in the parts.
Our vimeo video explains part defaults and how they work.

My defaults are set as you have shown.

I checked my templates and corrected it. Thanks.
