Wingdings font in first column of hole table

Anonymous

Hello,

 

Hole table question...

 

Does anyone know of a way to make the first column (HOLE), use wingdings for the data font, while still allowing the second column (DESCRIPTION) to use a normal font? My goal is to use symbols in the drill legend, rather than normal alphanumeric characters.

 

The attached picture shows what I'd like the hole column to read like on the left hand table, what I'd like the description column to read like on the right hand table.

 

Thanks for your time!

 

Ben

Here is one way:

In the Styles and Standards Editor:

- define a new Text style with Wingdings font;

- define a new Dimension style (say ‘Icons’), and set the text style to your new text style (that uses Wingdings fonts);

 Then, after you create the Hole Table the normal way, you could change the style of your hole identification (in the drawing, not in the Hole Table, by selecting it and changing its style in the Format Tab drop-down menu) to your new dimension style (Icons) and edit the icon to what you wish – see attached example.

Alternatively (following my post earlier), if you don't need the hole's X Y coordinates (more like your original example), it's much simpler:

After you roll up the table, just RMB on hole ID in the Table and edit the hole tag:
