Good morning, gentlemen;
How do you put the "Symmetrical" symbol on a Solid drawing axis. You know, the double black and white flag?
I can't even find the icon, I imagine it exists qd mm! Until now I was getting by with a block but it's a bit of a "hack"!
Thank you
Hello
To my knowledge there is no symmetry symbol, and you have to make do with a block!
We can add a geometric tolerance as shown here:

Hi @ fpinheiro
in theory by principle a long line followed by a short one. etc............ is an axis of symmetry

If you care about this symbol, make it a block:
_Dans a sketch of a room, for example, draw the shape you're interested in
_Faite Insert/Annotations/Hatch Area/Fill and choose the "solid" option and the color that goes well to make the checkerboard.
_Sélectionnez all your entities from the sketch
_Clic right on one of the "Create a block" entity, a window appears in the FeatureManager, validate.
_Le block now appears below the sketch and you can save it by right-clicking "Save Block.
From then on, in your drawings, you can easily insert this symbol and change its dimension by the scale.
Hello
To answer, I made a joint plane block that looks like the symmetry symbol
There he is
Denis
Is this the one you're looking for?
If that's it, put it in the folder stipulated in Tools/Options/File Location/Blocks.
EDIT: I hadn't watched before the @dpusel block. It's the same except for the color of the checkerboard. Sorry.
Ok gentlemen, thank you for your answers.
I see that we all have the same solution, it's just a shame that it doesn't exist on Solid.
@gt22: in theory by principle a long line followed by a short --> It's a line of axis and it's not necessarily a symmetry.
Thank you again.
Hello
In fact, the symbol you want, (Scissor Flags) is not standardized. It is a symbol used on "old" plans.
In all technical drawing books, such as GDI, Memotech etc. They say:
The trace of the plane of symmetry must be represented at each of its extremities by two small thin lines parallel and parpendicular to the axis.
It's up to you to see if you really want to use it, but I think that's why Solidworks doesn't have it.
