Oct 7, 2009 Thread starter #3 cadmantools Mechanical Apr 16, 2009 78 Read carefully and you will note that I know about dual dimensions but want to know about using the brackets in a note. Running cad straight out of the box is OK but, a system tuned with application software is the best way to increase productivity. Upvote 0 Downvote
