You may want some wire numbers to appear in-line with the wire rather than
above or below the wire.
1 Click the arrow on the Copy Wire Numbers tool to access the
Copy Wire Number (In-Line) tool.
2 Click the Copy Wire Number (In-Line) tool.
3 Specify the insertion point for the wire number.
4 In the Insert Wire Number dialog box, enter the wire number,
use Pick to select similar text from the drawing, or click the
arrows to increment or decrement the wire number.
5 Click OK. The wire number is automatically inserted in-line
with the wire.
If the gap between the wire and the wire number text isn't
quite large enough you can change the gap setup.
6 Click the arrow on the Copy Wire Numbers tool to access the
Adjust In-Line Wire/Label Gap tool.
7 Click the Adjust In-Line Wire/Label Gap tool.
8 Type S and press Enter to open the In-Line Wire Label Gap
Setup dialog box.
9 Adjust the values as necessary to define the adjustment for the
gap size.
■ A: Specifies the width between the end of the wire and the text. The
second option for setting "A" is the snap setting for the width. The
width stays constant until the text grows to a point where the Text +
A + A gets past the current gap width in the wire. The gap width then
jumps up to the next snap width increment. If this 2nd value is set to
0.25, the gaps in the wires are always going to be at 0.25 increments
(0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0). If this middle value is left at 0.0, then the snap
distance is 0 and the gap in the wire grows or shrinks smoothly as the
wire text grows or shrinks.
■ C: Specifies the minimum gap width by setting a fixed size value. If
you want fixed spacing for the in-line wire number gap, enter a size
value in the C edit box. A non-blank C value gives the minimum gap
