Document Properties > Tables > Punch

NOTE: Setting any of the following punch table values means that new punch tables added to the drawing use these default values. However, a punch table that uses a template table for insertion might not use these default values because the template table contains certain properties that take precedence over these default values. These properties include the tag style, precision values, combine tag, and combine same size.

Alpha/numerical control	IModelDocExtension::GetUserPreferenceInteger(swUserPreferenceIntegerValue_e.swPunchTableTagStyle, swUserPreferenceOption_e.swDetailingNoOptionSpecified) IModelDocExtension::SetUserPreferenceInteger(swUserPreferenceIntegerValue_e.swPunchTableTagStyle, swUserPreferenceOption_e.swDetailingNoOptionSpecified, swPunchTableTagStyle_e.<Value>)	See swPunchTableTagStyle_e for valid options	Specifies whether the punch tags are alphanumeric or numeric
Leading zeroes	IModelDocExtension::GetUserPreferenceInteger(swUserPreferenceIntegerValue_e.swDetailingLeadingZero, swUserPreferenceOption_e.swDetailingHoleTable) IModelDocExtension::SetUserPreferenceInteger(swUserPreferenceIntegerValue_e.swDetailingLeadingZero, swUserPreferenceOption_e.swDetailingPunchTable, swDetailingLeadingZero_e.<Value>)	See swDetailingLeadingZero_e for valid options
Trailing zeroes	IModelDocExtension::GetUserPreferenceInteger(swUserPreferenceIntegerValue_e.swDetailingDimTrailingZero, swUserPreferenceOption_e.swDetailingHoleTable) IModelDocExtension::SetUserPreferenceInteger(swUserPreferenceIntegerValue_e.swDetailingDimTrailingZero, swUserPreferenceOption_e.swDetailingPunchTable, swDetailingDimTrailingZero_e.<Value>)	See swDetailingDimTrailingZero_e for valid options
Combine same tags	IModelDocExtension::GetUserPreferenceToggle(swUserPreferenceToggle_e.swPunchTableCombineTags, swUserPreferenceOption_e.swDetailingNoOptionSpecified) IModelDocExtension::SetUserPreferenceToggle(swUserPreferenceToggle_e.swPunchTableCombineTags, swUserPreferenceOption_e.swDetailingNoOptionSpecified, <Value>)	Boolean value	If true, then punches of the same size are assigned the same tag, and the punch table contains a Quantity column, which indicates multiple punches of the same size exist
Combine same tags	IModelDocExtension::GetUserPreferenceToggle(swUserPreferenceToggle_e.swPunchTableCombineSameSize, swUserPreferenceOption_e.swDetailingNoOptionSpecified) IModelDocExtension::SetUserPreferenceToggle(swUserPreferenceToggle_e.swPunchTableCombineSameSize, swUserPreferenceOption_e.swDetailingNoOptionSpecified, <Value>)	Boolean value	If true, then punches are the same size, and their cells in the Size column are merged and appear as a single cell
Layer	IModelDocExtension::GetUserPreferenceString(swUserPreferenceStringValue_e.swDetailingLayer, swUserPreferenceOption_e.swDetailingPunchTable) IModelDocExtension::SetUserPreferenceString(swUserPreferenceStringValue_e.swDetailingLayer, swUserPreferenceOption_e.swDetailingPunchTable, <Value>)	Valid options: "Border" "Dimensions" "Notes" "BOM" "FORMAT" "None"	This setting is available only on drawings; depending on drawing, some options may not apply
Origin indicator	IModelDocExtension::GetUserPreferenceInteger(swUserPreferenceIntegerValue_e.swPunchTableOriginStandard, swUserPreferenceOption_e.swDetailingNoOptionSpecified) IModelDocExtension::SetUserPreferenceInteger(swUserPreferenceIntegerValue_e.swPunchTableOriginStandard, swUserPreferenceOption_e.swDetailingNoOptionSpecified, swDetailingStandard_e.<Value>)	See swDetailingStandard_e for valid options	Specifies the detailing standard to use for displaying the punch table's origin symbol If you specify -1 or 0, then the origin symbol is displayed according to the default document detailing standard; otherwise, the value is from swDetailingStandard_e and the punch table's origin is displayed according to that standard When setting this value, any existing punch tables in the drawing are updated to use this dimensioning standard To determine the default document detailing standard, get the value of the document's integer user preference swDetailingDimensionStardard
Tag angle/offset from profile center - Angle	IModelDocExtension::GetUserPreferenceDouble(swUserPreferenceDoubleValue_e.swPunchTableTagAngle, swUserPreferenceOption_e.swDetailingNoOptionSpecified) IModelDocExtension::SetUserPreferenceDouble(swUserPreferenceDoubleValue_e.swPunchTableTagAngle, swUserPreferenceOption_e.swDetailingNoOptionSpecified, <Value>)	Double value	The origin of the punch tag text is at this angle, in radians, clockwise from the Y axis at the distance specified by swPunchTableTagOffset (see the next enumeration); the angle must be between -360° and 360°
Tag angle/offset from profile center - Offset	IModelDocExtension::GetUserPreferenceDouble(swUserPreferenceDoubleValue_e.swPunchTableTagOffset, swUserPreferenceOption_e.swDetailingNoOptionSpecified) IModelDocExtension::SetUserPreferenceDouble(swUserPreferenceDoubleValue_e.swPunchTableTagOffset, swUserPreferenceOption_e.swDetailingNoOptionSpecified, <Value>)	Double value	The origin of the punch tag text is this distance from the punch at the angle specified by swPunchTableTagAngle (see previous enumeration); the offset must be > 0
