I apologize if this has already been asked. I searched but came up with nothing.
I would like to be able to check my model for identical instances of components in identical positions. The purpose is a check that I haven't placed the same component over another with the Mirror plugin or similar before I generate a .csv report to quantify my components.
Thanks in advance for your replies.
How can i set the default dimension text height to 8 pt?
Currently every dimension i place has 6 pt text and i have to change it manually. It's very slow.
Hi Glenn,
Thanks for your reply. That makes sense.
I hit a problem though when i try to break up the jamb into groups to accommodate that plan. Anything that is rectangular is easy to work with in dynamic components, but (referring again to my door frame), there would have to be 2 U-shaped groups in my component. When these are scaled everything scales uniformly whereas i would like to be able to somehow fix the width of each leg of the U-shape. Can that be done somehow?
I am having a recurring issue with Dynamic Components. Let me describe a
simple task and the problem i encounter. I have tried to make a dynamic
door frame. I want it to be 2100mm x 900mm overall and be made up of 2 sides
and a top all with profile dimensions of 90mm x 30mm. But i would like to
make it dynamic in that it can be made higher and wider but the jamb widths
stay constant at 30mm x 90mm. How can i fix that profile dimension so that
it doesn't change when i use the LenX, LenY properties to change the
overall size? (File attached)
By the way, i realize that it could be done by making 3 extruded rectangles (one each for the sides and top) but is there any way to make the U-shaped extruded frame that i am after with the profile dimensions locked?
Thanks in advance.
