Hi all.

Is there a possibility in SDW  2013 to have the arrow sizes of one color and the text of another color?

Thank you for your answers.

Hello

That is not possible to my knowledge.

See this tutorial, when you change the color of the arrows it also changes the color of the text:

Editing: we could imagine switching the plan to DWG and DXF and then modifying it in DraftSight (free) for example.

Or a PDF if you have software to modify PDFs.
