View label rules control the appearance of view labels, their placement on views, and the appearance and types of annotations within the views. You assign view labels as part of the drawing view style with the Tools > Define View Style command in the Drawings and Reports task.
View label rules are delivered in the [Reference Data Folder]\SharedContent\Drawings\Catalog\Rules\ViewRules folder.
The view labels also use the following:
-
Templates delivered in the [Reference Data Folder]\SharedContent\Drawings\Catalog\Labels\Templates\Views folder.
-
View naming rules.
-
Section mark rules.
The following view label rules are delivered with the software:
Type1
Displays the view direction and view scale. For example:
Looking North
SCALE: Fit To Scale
The Type1 view rule uses the SectionBubbleArrow for all cutting plane section mark arrows.
Type2
Displays the view direction and view scale. For example:
Looking North
SCALE: Fit To Scale
The Type2 view rule uses the Type2_Arrow for all cutting plane section mark arrows.
