    Contrasting Surface Finish

    Hello, I am designing a lab scale fixture consisting of a 1'' thick plate of aluminum. On this sheet of Aluminum, there is a rectangle (on the surface, not above the surface) that I would like to have a noticeably different visual look than the rest of the sheet. I want this because I'm using...

    Cannot use construction lines to constrain holes CATIA

    Hello, I drew a bunch of holes and constrained them to different lines. However, since I don't actually need the lines and I only need them for the geometric location of the holes, I converted them to construction lines. However, everytime I do that, CATIA says there are issues with my hole...

They're supposed to be 0.5'' holes, but it looks like they're just on the surface because I see no depth when...
