default dimension value

Aug 26, 2003 2 Replies

Aaarrrrggghh! I can't find it anymore!



E.g. when making a fillet, chamfer or blind extrusion, SW comes up with the default value. It was 1, but somehow it has been altered to 2.



Where is it found?


These settings come from the default part template. If you want to have your new parts configured, you have to modify the template, or create a new one.

Open a blank part.

Go to "tools-options-document properties"

Set all of the defaults the way you want them.

Save the empty document as a "prtdot" and give it a name like "Part inch" or something.

This new bank part document should show up in the window when you create a new part.

Parts that have already been started using the default template will have to be modified one at a time using the above method ( exept the save as "prtdot" step).

You may be able to use a macro or something to do a batch modify, dunno....

Found it. It's in the 'system options' > 'spin box increments' > 'metric units' > set value...

All the time i thought it should be found in the document properties...
