Anchors and Studs - labelling

Could somebody explain me a reason that it is not possible to manually label anchors and studs.

Yes... I know that it could be done via "Drawing Styles", but sometimes I need to manually label few anchors or studs and it can't be done on the drawing.

I can label bolts and holes but can't do it for anchors and studs!

Hi, 

Do the following steps. I don't know why there is no specific row for anchors but when you add the anchor name token in place in screenshot below it works fine.

I forgot to mention those have to be ticked to make it work.

Press "label content magager" I guess it's called that way in English, then select an anchor and tick boxes I showed below.

Also make sure you use user settings while labelling.

Hi, 

 

In MT, filter 'Token', uncheck 'Take from model only required tokens'.

=> Update defaults

If it is made of steel, I can model it and detail it.

@acbdesign - checked it twice (checked and unchecked)... and it is not working in Polish language AS installation.

In English version it is working without any problems, but unfortunately - for some reasons - I had to work in Polish version of AS.

 

@produkcja- after "Menadżer zawartości etykiet" ("Label content manager"), a message is displayed: "Wszystkie odsyłacze już istnieją w detalu" ("All tokens already exist in detail").

OK - finally it is working:

1. In English version of AS - always worked without any problems.

2. In Polish version of AS - it is working only if label is changed by @produkcja procedure. Important was to set active "User settings" (latest picture).

 

Anyway... I have no idea why it is so complicated in Polish version, because in English version there are no problems with labelling anchors, studs or special parts !?
