Draftsight for a draw

2D plans Annotation

Hi all;

Who wants to get points quickly!!

I have to add bubbles for solder marks on a client plan (dwg).

So I downloaded draftsight, but I don't know how to use it.

Someone can help me, I just have to slam bubbles on a plane....

 

Thank you in advance.

Use Paint! ;)

I don't think this solution will do it:(

Without going through paint, I will draw my bubbles by hand. a stroke + a circle and a text in it.

 

Personally I don't like drafsight.

 

I prefer to import my dxf to a solidworks mep and put a bubble, it's faster and more beautiful.

I tried it, but he doesn't want to import it to me:(

I have this error message that appears.

 

I do file=> open=> create a new Solidworks= drawing> embed as a sheet in native DXF/DWG=>link to the original file.

For the bubbles, I make a block and stick it everywhere. then I simply add my text in it

I forgot otherwise you open with draft and you save in an older format example version 2008-2010 so SW 2010 can open it. otherwise if it comes from an autocad 2013 and your SW is 2010 there are problems.

and don't forget to parameter the part that should be used as an import model otherwise you will have erroneous values (like mm in inch)

yes, I have SW2014 SP5, and it doesn't work either.

I give up, I leave it to my colleague (don't worry about him he manages autocad very well).

 

Thank you for your involvement.
