colour boards

[mikibizzarro]

Hello, everyone!
I have been using sw2009 for about 3/4 months, after that for years I have used inventor and autocad.
Now, I can do everything I need, I just want to fix some finesses that I think facilitate the work:
Is it possible to set the boards so that the various types of lines/annotations are automatically on predefined layers, so that you can use color tables? I found how to create layers and how to change them once done, but not how to set them up. . .
Thank you all.

I practically do not use them, however when I used them I acted in two different ways: the first, as in autocad, I inserted the objects as I did them, i.e. activate the layer and then create the object.
with the second method I moved the quotas on one layer and welding symbols on another, all at the end using filters. In this case, activate the filter, select and then place the objects on the desired layer.
for the parts or subassienas, instead, creod only exists the manual system.

Now I have no swx under my hand, but it seems to me that you can set all the layers you want and the various associations: quotas, thin lines, thick lines, sampling, etc.etc., and at the time of the table the cad does everything alone.

first you need to create layers in the design template, then in the template configurations, go to define the various associations.

It seems to me that it is explained quite well in the guide, however tonight I see to give him a look.

I found it.
you create the desired layers with the various characteristics in the template, then you attribute the layers to the various entities in options->property of the document. the important thing is to select the "standard" entry in the layer bar.
in this way when entering these entities in the table will automatically be on the layer set: e.g.: quotas on the "quota" layer
as it happens with mechanical acad.
Thank you all.

where do you find "standard"?
Is it a default layer that maybe I deleted?
Hello and thank you

 

[mikibizzarro]

you have to view the layer bar, making the right button on the frame and then positioning it as you were doing in autocad, and there is a window always similar to the autocad that contains the layers and in which the first upper voice is "for standard", if the selections you will see that your prototype settings will activate. . .

Okay, thank you!
I had, since always, inserted only the button to change the properties of the layers, so I did not display the layer by standard.
