Determines what weld symbols to place on a drawing

Usage in Label Template XML

<label>
<content>
<contentModule value="DrawingWeldSymbols"/>
<ID>WeldSymbols\Weldsymbol.rtp</ID>
<ignoreError>0</ignoreError>
</content>
<leaderSettings>
<toleranceAngle>0</toleranceAngle>
<toleranceAngleForSingleBevelJWeld>0
</toleranceAngleForSingleBevelJWeld>
</leaderSettings>
</label>

  • This content module automatically generates the weld symbol representation according to the AWS standard based on the label output provided in the <ID> section.

  • The two-dimensional weld symbol that the software writes to the drawing is based on the occurrence attributes provided in the Support Weld Component Properties dialog box under the Welding category in the model and the 2D symbols located in the [Symbol Share]\drawings\catalog\labels\templates\weldsymbols folder.

  • For more information on the mapping of three-dimensional weld component properties and the two-dimensional weld symbol representation, see AWS Standards in Drawings in the Drawings and Reports Reference Data Guide and Weld Properties in the Hangers and Supports SmartPart Symbols Reference Guide.

  • The report template must be located in the same folder as the label template XML.

Customization

ID

Specifies the report template that defines the label contents.

ignoreError

Specifies whether or not the system places a label if the software returns no content or an error for the label.

The ignoreError property is unavailable when you define the symbol path label. For more information, see Symbol Path Label.

toleranceAngle

Denotes the range in degrees on either side of the weld reference line or the perpendicular of the line. The leader line of a weld label cannot be placed within this range. If you place the weld label in such a way that the leader line of the label falls within this range, that leader line automatically shifts until free of the Tolerance Angle range.

toleranceAngleForSingleBevelJWeld

Specifies the permissible range of degrees within which the leader line of the label may fall when the arrow line points toward certain welds. Single-bevel butt welds, single-bevel butt welds with broad root faces, and single J butt welds are all affected by this property. In the case of welds of these types, the arrow line points toward the prepared edge of the plate. If the arrow line falls outside of the specified range, then the leader line connecting to the arrow line shifts by 90 degrees minus the value of Tolerance Angle for Single Bevel J Weld.
