Category in Advanced options dialog box: Marking - bolts

Use this advanced option to define the contents of the Size element in bolt marks in general arrangement drawings. If you have not set the advanced options XS_SHOP_BOLT_MARK_STRING_FOR_SIZE_IN_GA or XS_SITE_BOLT_MARK_STRING_FOR_SIZE_IN_GA, then this advanced option is used.

This advanced option is only used when there is a 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. 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

Enclose each option in % characters.

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

To use special characters, enter a backslash (\) followed by an ASCII number.

With length-type options, but not in calculations, you can specify the number of decimals. For example, HOLE.DIAMETER.2 shows (tapped) hole diameters with two decimals.

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