MikeR1969 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 My plans examiners almost always miss my surface mount CO Alarms. Is is possible to make the text "CO" bigger (maybe match the size of outlets, switches)? Thanks! co alarm.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopsaw Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Yes that is an issue that can be fixed. Go to Cad Block Management and insert the cad block into your plan and explode the block. Edit to your liking and re block then rename and assign to the symbol as 2D cad block in Symbol DBX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping it could be changed in a future update but that will work until then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes eventually it will happen but save your customized symbol in your user library for now and maybe there will be other things you will want to customize now that you know how.

DRAWZILLA Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 You can always create a electrical schedule where it would create a label for them that is easier to read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robdyck Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I've got a customized COSD and SD symbol. Perfect for 1/4" scale. I don't know the easiest way to share it though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robdyck Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Alright then... never done that before and I wasn't sure if it exported the library object, or the whole library. Here they are. Easy enough to edit using Chop Saw instructions. COSD.calibz SD.calibz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopsaw Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Hi Rob, Thanks for sharing. Could you post a Plan View Screen Shot so we can see what have created before downloading ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also good to know but what I meant was just as simple comparison to what Mike posted at the top that shows relative scale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the 1" grid would show up better in my screenshot so that it would be a bit more obvious as to the size. 6" diameter. Hope that helps.
