I have just given that a go. I took a component named Group#31, put it in the drawing then opened the entity info box and the definition name is correct! See attached screenshot.

Thanks

Thanks for your replies everyone. I have attached a screenshot to try and make myself a bit more clear!

In the component browser you can see a highlighted component i created. In the description of the item at the top it says the component is '600 wide...ect' which is what i saved the component as. But below in the highlighted group it says 'Group#31'. How do I change the 'Group#31' for '600 wide..etc'

Hope this is more clear!

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. Not sure if understand 100%. I have saved the components under the names i have given them in a separate folder. When i look at them in the component browser 'in model' they appear under the saved names but when i look at them in the folder in the browser it dosent show the name!

Hi everyone,

Im having a bit of problem. I have been drawing components and saving them for later use. Once i have drawn a component i right click on it and select make component i then right click again and choose save as. The problem comes when i look at the component browser. It doesnt list the component under the name i saved it, it just lists it as 'Group#...'. Im sure there is a simple solution for this but cant seem to find anything!

Thanks

Paul.

Thanks again Dave!

Hi Dave,

No, the line is all along the x axis. It runs along the same as the 600mm dimension.

Hi everyone,

Im having a bit of an issue with dimensioning in Layout. I have attached an image of the issue. This is a close up of a kitchen plan. You can see on the right a 600mm cabinet dimension, then a 19mm panel. The next unit is also 600mm but when i click on the start of the dimension the distance is all wrong. As you can see the distance of my mouse pointer is halfway along the cabined and its showing 1484mm, this should be about 300mm. It does not always happen but when it does its very annoying!

Hope someone can help!

Paul.

I'll will take a look, thanks Chris.

Thanks Tig I think I may have had a different layer selected as active, I wont be able to check on my other PC until next week.

Thanks very much for all your help. Just watched that video, really useful. I didnt know about the create group from a section cut function, very useful!
