What drafting standard uses these symbols? Start by making sure NX is set to the same drafting standard (utilities -> customer defaults -> drafting).

These should be available in all standards, as of my experience these r most used in metric standards like in japan n india, i do desgins for japanese company thus i use ISO standards as its support metric standards, my company unfortunately shifted from soldiworks to NX , i'm facing so many new things!!, But i appreciate NX , it has great commands than solidworks for sure
 
We can also show these triangles in the means of N6,N7,N10 ...but i want to know how to get these triangles

Hi, dear nicoletto

thank you for advice to get symbol but can you please tell me how to rotate it for required angle(note text) because in some cases i have to place that symbol vertically as you can see in the image below.

I can't see a lettering angle when i choose leader terminating point type as a 'Flag', and i must choose flag type to attach my triangles to the dimension lines as you can see in the images below
please help me with this thanks

Guys, FYI

I have used creation of custom symbol method in drafting tools, that solved my adding roughness traingle formula and adding some other symbols too, that's a great option in NX actually

Thanks,
