Displaying Dimensions and Bend Notes in Drawing Mode
To display dimensions and bend notes in Drawing mode after making the pipe solid, select a drawing view, right-click and choose Show Model Annotations.
You can manipulate the display of pipe solid centerlines, pipe solid dimensions, and bend notes in drawings using the following methods:
• To control the display of pipe solid centerlines in drawings,
◦ Blank the centerlines by setting the configuration file option pipe_solid_centerline to no.
◦ Include pipe solid centerlines in the hidden line removal process by setting the drawing setup file option hlr_for_pipe_solid_cl to yes.
• To display drawing dimensions for isometric drawings of piping assemblies, set the drawing setup file option allow_3d_dimensions to yes.
In a 3-D view, the system does not show any dimensions that are not in the view plane of the drawing unless you have set this drawing setup file option.
