How to indicate sloping lines with a triangle not a sloping arrow on Iso drawing

Seems so simple but I can't find the setting.

I want the Piping Isometrics to show the Line slope as a Triangle together with the Ratio and not a downwards pointing arrow. I've tried the various Selections in the Iso Set-up but cannot seem to make the Triangle show.

See images attached

fall.PNG is what I want but fall1.PNG is what i'm getting

Thanks

Hi Malcolm,

You can change the isoconfig.xml file to use the slope triangle instead of what you have set. 

 

Open the isoconfig.xml for the iso template you are using in a text editor and search for <SlopeSymbols>.

By the looks of the screenshot you are using ratio so change the Key="Ratio" line to the following. 

      <Item Key="Ratio" Value="AnnoSlopeTriangle" /> <!--"AnnoSlopeRatio" />-->

The last bit '<!--"AnnoSlopeRatio" />-->' is just commenting out what the field used to be incase you want to change it back.

Save the file and run an iso and it should be a slope triangle instead.
