How can I put a surface finish symbol in a note. I don't see it in the symbols.

Hi Nathan,

I posted this file awhile ago:

There are various symbols in there none really stating "surface finish", but hopefully you can use one of them. The other option is to make your own symbol if you wanted to hack around with the file found in:

"c:\Program Files\Solidworks\lang\english\Gtol.sym"

Here are the first couple symbol groups:

************************************************************ Library: Geometric Tolerancing ************************************************************

- Angularity - Between - Circularity(roundness) - Concentricity and coaxiality - Cylindricity - Flatness - Profile of any line - Parallelism - Perpendicularity - Position - Profile of any surface - Simple runout - Simple runout (open) - Straightness - Symmetry - Total runout - Total runout (open)

- Angularity - Circularity(roundness) - Concentricity and coaxiality - Cylindricity - Flatness - Profile of any line - Parallelism - Perpendicularity - Position - Profile of any surface - Simple runout - Straightness - Symmetry - Total runout
