Method

Select the object to attach the leader note and specify the points for its location. Next, add the text note in the Contents field of the Properties panel.

There are two use cases to activate the mechanical entities:
  1. When creating a new drawing that contains mechanical entities:
    1. Set the LOADMECHANICAL2D system variable to ON (1).
    2. Start a new drawing using a Mechanical2d template.
  2. When opening a drawing that contains mechanical entities:
    1. Set the LOADMECHANICAL2D system variable to ON (1).
    2. Open an existent ACM drawing and start special symbols creation.
Note: These dimensions are compatible with the legacy AutoCAD® Mechanical application.
Note: The dimensions will be added to the AM_5 layer.
Note: After opening a drawing that contains mechanical entities, filling other drawings with mechanical-related data will be done on-demand in contrast to previous versions. It will be possible when a user copies the mechanical-related entities to the vanilla drawing. In case of copying entities that are not related to the mechanical data, a vanilla drawing will not be filled with mechanical data.
Note: When you open a drawing that contains mechanical entities, but the LOADMECHANICAL2D system variable is OFF, a warning bubble is displayed at the status bar that describes the situation and provides a hyperlink to immediately enable and load the mechanical 2d modules.
