How to create a custome value for a Dot Filled Tick Mark?

[Anonymous]

I need to have a different size Dot Filled Tick Mark. In the drop down menu under Value, I am only give two sizes. 1/8" and 1/16". I need something different then what is given.

Thanks

If you edit the type, you can duplicate one of the sizes and create the size you need

They can not be edited even when I create a duplicate. I tried to put in a new value from the duplicate that I created and the value just goes back to the last value it was at (1/8" or 1/16").

Tick marks are found under the arrowhead panel.

Manage > Additional Settings > Arrowheads

1. Duplicate an existing arrowhead type is is close to what you want.

2. Use the preset arrow style that you want (these cannot be added to unfortunately).

3. change the size of the arrowhead to whatever you want. Click "Ok".

4. Select an existing dimension in your drawing and click on Edit Type.

5. Duplicate the dimension style and name it.

6. Change the tick mark to the arrowhead that you created earlier. Click "Ok".

Now you can have dots as your tick marks in whatever size you need.

Go to Manage tab=>Additional Settings=>Arrowheads and create what you need. Then create a Annotation Type to use the newly created Arrowhead.
