how to stop "view" insert of fillet/radius centerines

Unread post by Mike Gera »

In a drawing, with a view selected:

Insert > Annotations > Centerline...

Auto Insert "Select View" checked

Centerlines are being inserted for holes, which I want, but they are also being inserted for fillets/radii, which I do not want.

How do I change this?

Thanks.

Do you have this checked? "For all fillets"

Thanks, Alex.

I do not have all the options that you do. I only see this:

In your drawing template, if you look at "Options -> Document Properties -> Detailing", there is a section for "Auto insert on view creation" that will put centerlines/centermarks based on your selections.

Yeah, my apologies, in french it is not the same command. I get the same result as you with the same command.

This is most likely what you need to toggle

In the almost 20 years that I have been using Solidworks, I think I used that function twice.

Both times I tried to get it to be what I wanted without adding fluff to views that I didn't want.

Then I shelved it and have just put all my center marks in manually.
