Increasing G, D & T number of lines

danrboch — Fri, 15 Mar 2019 13:55:04 GMT

When you create a G, D & T symbol Autocad defaults to (2) lines of G, D & T values. I work on redrawing older prints that require 3 or 4 lines. How do I change this without making (2) blocks?

For those of us who are not familiar with G, D, & T symbols, can you please show us what you have and what you want?

Edit that block and add more attributes lines to it not an option?

Picture one is dialog box. Picture two is what I would like. (Picture two is made up of (2) boxes moved together.)

I don't recognize that dialog box at all.

Are you using a vertical product?

Can you post the block?

This is not a block. I am using AutoCad 2019 Feature Control Frame command. This is the dialog box for added Geometric Tolerancing.

So, you're using AutoCAD Mechanical Toolset?

Sorry for wasting your time. I can't even try to help.

You probably should try posting in the Mechanical forum, https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/autocad-mechanical-forum/bd-p/39.

A search for the "command" AutoCad 2019 Feature Control Frame brings me here:

I always thought it was a basic AutoCad Function and I've been using
AutoCad for over 30 Years.
Oh Well new things everyday.
