Place...
|
Placing :
free allows Tekla Structures to search for the first suitable location for the mark, dimension, weld or another annotation object. fixed allows you to place the mark, dimension, weld or another annotation object in any location.
When you use the option fixed , the annotation object stays where it is even though you update the drawing, whereas with free , Tekla Structures tries to find the optimal place for the annotation object.
Search margin is the empty margin that you want to leave around the mark.
Quarter defines the areas Tekla Structures searches for a space for placing the mark.
Minimum distance is the minimum distance of the mark from the part.
Note that if you use high Search margin and Minimum distance values, the mark placement may not work properly.
