If you have Microsoft Excel on your computer, you can use it to embed a new design table directly in the document. A design table allows you to build several different configurations of a part by applying the values in the table to the dimensions of the part.
First you prepare to insert the design table.
1. Click (Standard Views toolbar).
2. Right-click the Annotations folder in the FeatureManager design tree, and select Details.
3. In the Annotation Properties dialog box:
- Clear Always display text at the same size.
- Set Text scale to 1:1.
- Click OK.
Text now scales when you zoom in the graphics area.
4. Press Z to zoom out or Shift+Z to zoom in so you can see all of the part’s dimensions in the graphics area. Use Pan , if necessary, to move the part to the lower-right corner of the window.
