    hi all

    what if we have different figure sizes in our design for different drill holes, how would we adjust every row height in the drill legend table to compensate with the figure sizes. so that we will not have a fixed row sizes. is there a way to adjust the individual row hieghts in the ncdrill legend table? i would appreciate ur replies.

    Hello,

    The Row height is driven by the largest drill figure size and all the rows will be at that consistent height.  The only option you have is to modify the drill template file (.dlt) so all the drill figure sizes in the drill legend table are the same. 

    The parameter you will need to update inside the .dlt file is called " ?FixedFigureHeight", it defaults to " ?FixedFigureHeight    0" and any number other than zero will be the actual height of the drill figure in the drill legend table. (Note: This change only effects the drill legend table)

    This may not be what you are looking for but as far as I know there is no way to individually adjust the row heights in the drill legend table as they all come out at a consistent height.

    Hope this helps,
