Pro-E/2001 Lost Drawing Details and Family Table Functioality

We've recently 'upgraded' to Pro-E/2001 from Pro-E, version 20. I used
to be able to toggle the leader type in Pro-E/20 using modify/any
item/leader type. This would move the leader to a note from the top of
the note to the bottom. I also used to be able to change how a
diameter was dimensioned using the same list of picks. Have these
functionalities been removed? If not, does anyone know where I can
find them?

Also, I used to be able to copy a family table by saving it as a
text file. Then I could read it into a new family table. This was a
great time saver when creating multiple family tables. Is a method
similar to this available in Pro-E/2001? Any help with these issues
would be appreciated.

 

try selecting the leader and right clicking. It should give you al these
options.

don't know. sorry

cheers

The right click on the leader didn't help. I was able, however, to
revise the diameter dimensioning scheme (hi lite
dim/edit/properties/show as linear dim).

 

The right click on the leader did work. I found out that you had to
hold the right mouse button down for a second until the drop down
appeared. This drop down had all the toggle command that I was looking
for.

Thanks for your help.

No worries
With each release of ProE, there should be some release notes that detail
changes
cheers

This is available in 2001 as the Menu Manager menu 'Table>Save/Retrieve>Save
text'.
