Afternoon all,

I am thoroughly frustrated AGAIN with SW.

I have a simple threaded insert part with a hole in the middle of it.  I want to create a section view right through the middle of the part and project it to the side.  I create the section and project it correctly.  The arrow heads on the parent view are off in space due to a "Cpoint" within the part.  I click on the section line and try to bring the arrowheads back onto the view and drop them where I want.  Only thing is, SW drops them where IT wants.  I cannot accurately drop the arrow heads where I want them.  Its like the arrowheads are snapping to a particular spot.  I can flip them left and right, no problem.  But drag them up and down, no luck.  Tech support gives me the usual answer, "it must be a bug" and we'll send and SPR.  Check back next service pack.  Or I can draw a line and dimension it and this and that.  Just another work around AGAIN!

I need some help if anyone is game baling Sid out again.

Thanks all.

Sid
