XS_​NSFS_​TEXT_​POSITION_​IN_​PART_​MARK

Category in Advanced options dialog box

Marking: parts

Defines which element the NS, FS or BS text follows in merged part marks.

The default is 23, which means that the text is located after part position. If the type that is defined by the advanced option cannot be found in the mark at all, the text is located at end of the mark. To force the text to always appear at the end of the mark, use -1.

This advanced option is model specific and the setting is saved in the options database.

For more information about the automatic merging of the part marks, see Merge marks automatically.

The following list contains the corresponding integer values and elements in the mark:

TEXT = 1

LINE FEED = 2

SYMBOL = 3

FRAME START = 4

FRAME END = 5

MATERIAL = 10

USER DEFINED ATTRIBUTE = 16

ASSEMBLY_POSITION = 22

PART_POSITION = 23

PROFILE = 24

NAME = 25

LENGTH = 26

CAMBER = 27

SIZE = 28

FITTINGS (NS/FS) = 29

CLASS = 38

BACK_SPACE = 46

GAGE OF OUTSTANDING LEG = 48

CENTER TO CENTER DISTANCE = 49

FACE_DIRECTION = 57

END OF Mark = -1

Example

XS_NSFS_TEXT_POSITION_IN_PART_MARK=22

The value 22 means after assembly position.

Note:

NS, FS and BS text itself comes from two separate places depending on if the marks are merged or not. For ordinary marks, the text comes from a file called by_number.ail (NS: by_number_msg_no_675, FS: by_number_msg_no_676). For merged marks, the text comes from the following advanced options:

  • BS: XS_GET_NSFS_POSTFIX_FOR_MERGED_PART_MARK

  • NS: XS_GET_NS_POSTFIX_FOR_MERGED_PART_MARK

  • FS: XS_GET_FS_POSTFIX_FOR_MERGED_PART_MARK
