End plate with bolt default dimensions

Hi folks,

 

a quick one today : Where can I change the default dimensions of a baseplate in a macro?

I mean, default size is HUGE... nothing to worry about but it's kind of annoying when using again and again the same weirdly coded macro...

 

As example, Miscellaneous>End plate with bolts   is this size per default :

I can't remember which one but there is some others macro that the default size are completely out of logic dimensions.

 

It is probably hard coded like that but I'm asking if someone have a cue.

Looks fine to me. A little larger and it's also wheelchair accessible.

It is done through the connection vault library and the use of wildcard selections to choose the right dimensions based on the members selected.

 

Wildcards like  %#@§@#%

Create a base plate how you want it for the post and save it in your library, it will then get used for that post section size automatically.

I never ever figured out what's the real use of the library!! This is awesome 😳

I wasted so much time before knowing this function!
