Lines With Arrows

[bbuche]

does anyone know if there is as system variable that I can set up

that once I add a arrowhead to the end of a line it always is at a certain

number. I draw the same size arrowheads every time and this would be a

time saver for me.

 

Thanks if anyone can help.

Hi, Brian!

 

You have a lot of things that you can pre set under the "properties" icon (next to layers and styles).

 

But I think you can't set active attributes, I think that is what you are after. That is something I wish we will get.

 

So you can choose which layer and styles etc. that shall be actice until you choose something else (preferaly like a pulldown menu or likewise).

In the drawing mode.. you can also set up a template drawing.. that way all the attributes are there once you pick that drawing... I have several setup for myself that way... put things on different layers... etc.. do what ever you want...

You could also

Create a new LINE STYLE (#1 in image) with the desired Arrow head sizes etc.. then "map" SHEET CURVES to use that Line Style (#2 in image).

 

Only drawback is any 2d curves you draw will use that style until you remap to the original or another style. For instance, draw whatever geometric curves first, then map as stated and then draw all the curves wit the arrows.

 

Reset the styles thru this process as needed.

 

May or may not help your situation
