Place hole circles


    When you select a hole feature profile plane, the Hole command bar automatically advances to the profile step, and the following changes take place:

    • The profile true view is displayed.

    • For hole features, the Hole Circle command is started for you to place holes in the profile sketch.

  1. On the command bar, click the Hole Options button, and specify hole size, type, and other parameters in the Hole Options dialog box.

  2. Click to place one or more hole circles.

  3. To create symmetrically aligned holes within the same hole feature, add a symmetric constraint between two hole circles in the hole circle sketch profile. You also can add a horizontal/vertical relationship between hole circles.

  4. Click the green check mark to close the hole circle sketch and return to the hole feature command bar.

    For more information, see Hole command (ordered).

Note:

If the hole circle profile is invalid for constructing the hole feature, you are returned to the profile step. A message describing the problem is displayed. When you have corrected the problem, click Finish on the command bar to proceed.
