|
Sets the default coordinates to the cartesian type. Once set, all new hole charts you create will have their coordinate type set to cartesian coordinates. This button is available only if you arrived at this dialog box via the AM:Standards tab. |
|
Sets the default coordinates to the polar type. Once set, all new hole charts you create will have their coordinate type set to polar coordinates. This button is available only if you arrived at this dialog box via the AM:Standards tab. |
|
Enables creation of a hole table by default. Consequently, whenever you place a hole chart in the drawing area, the AMHOLECHART command prompts you to place a hole table as well. This button is available only if you arrived at this dialog box via the AM:Standards tab. You typically use this option with ANSI hole charts. |
|
Show Specifies whether this dialog box displays hole chart or hole table details. Select “List of Coordinates” for hole chart details and “Hole Table” for hole table details. This option is available only if you arrived at this dialog box via the AM:Standards tab. |
|
Displays the Hole Chart Columns dialog box. Use this dialog box to set the column defaults for hole charts. This button is available only if you arrived at this dialog box via the AM:Standards tab. |
|
Displays the Sort dialog box to set the default sort order. This button is available only if you arrived at this dialog box via the AM:Standards tab. |
|
Specifies that hole charts must display column headings by default. This button is available only if you arrived at this dialog box via the AM:Standards tab. |
|
Specifies that hole charts must display a table title by default. Once set, all new hole charts you create will contain titles. This button is available only if you arrived at this dialog box via the AM:Standards tab. |
|
Specifies that hole charts should display a grip frame by default. Once set, all new hole charts you create will contain grip frames. This button is available only if you arrived at this dialog box via the AM:Standards tab. |

List of Coordinates/Hole Table |
|
Attach Point Sets the placement for the grip. |
|
Title pattern Sets the table title. You can add free text as well as a formula. To add a formula, type the equal sign character (=) as the first character of the title. The table title can display the <DefaultTitle> (evaluates to HOLE table or LIST OF COORDINATES) and <Origin> (evaluates to the hole chart origin name) variables. \P (backslash character followed by P followed by a space) inserts a line break. The button enables you to pickup variables from a look up table. |
|
Text style Specifies the text style to use with hole chart text. This option is available only if the current drafting standard is a custom standard or if text settings are linked to dimension styles. |
|
Heading Gap Sets the gap between the heading and the first row in the table. |
|
Row Gap Sets the spacing between the rows in the table. |
|
Line Spacing Sets the height of the rows. |
|
Heading text height Sets the height of the text in the heading row. If the current standard is a "custom standard", you can specify a non-standard text height. If not, AutoCAD Mechanical toolset restricts you to selecting a value from the list.
Note: If you select the text height labelled "By NameOfStandard", the text height is linked to the base height setting in the master settings of the drafting standard. If the master setting changes, the heading text height changes accordingly.
|
|
Heading text color Defines the text color to be used for the heading row. If the text height changes, the color automatically changes to the default color corresponding to that text height. Text object colors are set from the Object Property Settings dialog box.
Note: If you select the color labelled "By NameOfStandard", the heading text color is linked to the text color setting in the master settings of the drafting standard. If the master setting changes, the text color setting for heading text change accordingly.
|
|
Data text height Defines the text height to be used for data rows. If the current standard is a "custom standard", you can specify a non-standard text height. If not, AutoCAD Mechanical toolset restricts you to selecting a value from the list.
Note: If you select the text height labelled "By NameOfStandard", the text height is linked to the base height setting in the master settings of the drafting standard. If the master setting changes, the data text height changes accordingly.
|
|
Data text color Defines the text color to be used for data rows. If the text height changes, the color automatically changes to the default color corresponding to that text height. Text object colors are set from the Object Property Settings dialog box.
Note: If you select the color labelled "By NameOfStandard", the data row text color is linked to the text color setting in the master settings of the drafting standard. If the master setting changes, the data row text color changes accordingly.

Label position Specifies how labels are positioned in the drawing. |
|
Point identifier Specifies the format of points in the drawing. |
|
Origin terminator Specifies the format of the point origin in the drawing. |
|
Text height Sets the text height to use for hole labels and origin labels. If the text height changes, the color automatically changes to the default color corresponding to that text height. Text object colors are set from the Object Property Settings dialog box.
Note: If you select the text height labelled "By NameOfStandard", the text height is linked to the base height setting in the master settings of the drafting standard. If the master setting changes, the label text heights change accordingly.
