XS_​SITE_​HOLE_​MARK_​STRING_​FOR_​SIZE

Category

Marking: Bolts

Use to define the contents of the Size element in hole marks (site). For example, to show bolt number and hole diameter in the mark, enter %BOLT_NUMBER%*D%HOLE.DIAMETER%.

This advanced option is only used when there is a hole, no bolt (and the hole is a normal one).

You can use any combination of text and the following options as the value for this advanced option. Enclose each option in % characters.

Note that if you are defining this advanced in an .ini file, use double percent signs around the switches %%BOLT_NUMBER%%*D%%HOLE.DIAMETER%%.

To use special characters enter a backslash (\) followed by an ASCII number. You can use the options in any order, and make calculations.

  • BOLT_NUMBER

  • DIAMETER

  • LENGTH

  • HOLE.DIAMETER

  • LONG_HOLE_X

  • LONG_HOLE_Y

  • LONGHOLE_MIN (the shorter of the slotted hole dimensions)

  • LONGHOLE_MAX (the longer of the slotted hole dimensions)

  • BOLT_STANDARD

  • BOLT_MATERIAL

  • BOLT_ASSEMBLY_TYPE

  • BOLT_COUNTERSUNK

  • BOLT_SHORT_NAME

  • BOLT_FULL_NAME

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