Note Properties dialog (PartMaker)

Use the Note Properties dialog to change the properties of the selected note.

To display the Note Properties dialog:

  • Click Note Properties on the Edit Note dialog;
  • Select View > Dimensions and Notes > Note Properties from the menu bar; or
  • Right-click a note and select Note Properties from the menu.

The following settings are available:

Font — Specify the font you want to use:

  • User-Defined font — Select this option to select a specific font. Clicking the Set Font button displays the Font dialog. Use this dialog to select a specific font.. You can also specify the font's style (such as bold or italic) and its size.
  • Default font — Select this option to use the default system font.

Text Height — If you have selected to use the default font, specify how you want the text height to be defined:

  • Part Units — The text height is defined in part units.
  • Screen Units — The text height is defined in screen units, assuming that Face window is maximized and the part boundaries are displayed entirely within the Face window (see Full View).
Note: Autodesk recommends that the text height is defined in part units. If the text height is defined in screen units, the appearance of the text will be resolution-dependent and so may not look the same in reference to the Part geometry.

Arrow Angle — Specify the angle of the arrow.

Arrow Length — Specify the length of the arrow.

Leader Length — Specify the length of the horizontal leader line.

Use As Default — Click to set the properties on this dialog as the default note properties for the current Face window.

Preview — Click to view how the properties you have set affect the display in the CAD window, without needing to close the dialog.
