CADsys-Set Scale/Unit in Drawing Signature
Win64, EnglishGeneral Usage Instructions
To enable the functionality, it is necessary that the user creates a user defined iProperty of type "text" with an empty value in the drawing template file (eg Norm.idw) for the scale and/or for the unit.
This empty value of the iProperty must be inserted once in the template file by the user on this position, where the scale or the unit has to be inserted/edited into the drawings title block automatically by saving the drawing later.
The format of the placeholder will be used for the generated scale text and/or the generated unit text too.
