Hello
I need to find a way how to insert a point or a * on the center point of a hole and put it on a different layer. The reason for this is - I am a CAD tech for a welding shop and we cut parts out of steel and we use the dxf file format for our plasma table to cut parts. For example : if i have a 1 inch thick plate and want to put a 3/4'' hole in the plate the hole will be distorted because the hole is smaller than the material thickness. For these situation we can use the plasma table to burn a point or a dot on the center point of the hole. But to do this the point or dot must be on a different layer in the dxf. I hope this makes sense.
Thanks You if you have any questions you call me @ 1 204 388 6631
Hi
What you can do is similar to the this thread:
- Create a new layer for the plasma.
- Manually move the holes to the new layer.
- Select lines
- Anotate tab; Layer
- Select the new layer.
If required modify the DWG export template to use the new layers for your purposes.
Do you think it's wise to use your serial number or contract number as your user ID? Hope I'm wrong about that, but that's what it looks like.
