I have a very specific flag note that has to be added to the drawings I am working and it is not one that is in the borders database. Does anyone know of a way to add a block to the list of borders for flag notes? As it stands, we are using a block overlay-ed over the numeric, but it creates formatting issues for the notes and becomes a hassle when the notes need to be modified.
Jason,
I should ask if you can possibly consider using a more common symbol, first. However, if you cannot, please file an enhancement request that we add this border to our notes tools. When you file this request, it will help if you can provide proportions and size comparison to text that will reside within.
In the meantime, you can create our own symbols in the same manner as other flag symbols in our Symbols Library. Again, you won't be able to use SOLIDWORKS paragraph numbering or Flag Note Bank, but if you feel this border is necessary, then this is your next best option. When you add symbols to the GTOL.SYM file, the GTOL.SYM file must be accessible to all persons with your organization. If someone outside of your organize works on your drawings, you'll need to provide the file to them as well.
