Update Hole Information

1. Double click either "Value" in Details, or the applicable "Dimensions" or "Hole" from the 3D viewer.

Tip

Hole type is determined per group, so if you would like to specify a different hole type for each hole in the group, you need to first split grouped holes.
2. In the displayed [Hole information instructions] dialog box, select the hole type and click [Update].
Hole types are “Straight,” “Tapped” or “Insert.”

Straight hole

Hole Diameter Tolerances are “Fit Tolerance,” “Tolerance on both sides,” and “Tolerance on one side.”

Tapped hole

If the hole diameter is applicable for a standard, “Tapped” will be displayed in hole type.

  • If there are multiple options, a pull-down list will be displayed.

Insert Holes

If the hole diameter is applicable for a standard, “Insert” will be displayed in hole type.

See here for the insert hole standards table
