i would like 2 know how 2 add text in modelling.i saw someplanes in modelshave text nearby it like DATUM A,DATUM B....


can any one clear my doubt.awaiting for ur reply frnds


hoping for the suitable reply
 
If i understood properly:
If you want add note to 3d model in modeling ( or dimms) you must go to drafting, and : go Format and turn off Display Sheet, and you can use all tools from drafting in 3D space ( in MODELING). But one thing - yours notes are drafted on X-Y plane (if you want change direction - rotate WCS).

Sorry for my english....

Best Regards

In NX3 you canselect Insert - Curve - Text. This creates a feature with the Text you enter. You can change the height and length with handles. Then use extrude to turn into a solid if desired. If you are using a version older than NX3 then use the procedure previously defined in this thread.
