This is my initial detail drawing... would this be enough to machine the hole? http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=bce378ea-add8-4f92-ac7f-28397ad03cef&file=BLOCK.PNG

Hello, I am trying to make a drawing detailing an M6 threaded hole that lies on a contoured surface using a dowel hole to locate the centerpoint for machining. I have searched around a bit for instruction or example drawings of something similar and cannot find anything. Anyone have any...

Hi all, I am coming from Unigraphics and have an assembly that I need to modify. I would like to select certain solid bodies as well as axis/planes and save as a separate part to work on. What is the best way to do this? If I select the solid bodies, I can right click and 'Insert into new...

Thanks for these suggestions, though I should've been more clear. Extruding the text into each part is what I am after.

Say I have 50 of the same part but I want to label with A-1, A-2, A-3, etc... is there a way to quickly do this with Expressions/Reference Text? I was reading : http://www.eng-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=337116 but when I tried to create an expression with a similiar formula, I was getting an...

I'm trying to create an extrude feature on a set of say 200 blocks of the same exact size. Instead of creating a Text curve and extruding it on each block. I want do it for one of them say block 1 with text 1 extruded, and then have it repeat to the next 199 blocks, extruding 2, then 3, then...

Okay, thanks for clarifying John, not exactly the answer I was hoping for but at least I know its not my installation.

No, the customer defaults are all off except 'sketch holes in modeling' The Preferences -> drafting -> table -> hole table -> hole filters has everything turned on.

No, only the circles in sketch model option is turned on in defaults. When I make the hole table, it shows all holes, threaded, c'bore, thru, and sketch.
