Extracting Other Characteristic Types

You can extract other characteristic types such as temperature, torque, and electrical resistance.

To extract other characteristic types:

  1. In a drawing, click Other (Document ribbon).
  2. In the graphics area, box-select a characteristic.
    A balloon appears next to the extracted annotation, the image appears at the top of the Characteristic tab in the Properties/Preferences PropertyManager, and the OCR attempts to fill the correct values in the Characteristic tab.
  3. In the Properties/Preferences PropertyManager, under General, Inspection, Ballooning, and Custom, enter values for the remaining data in the annotation.
