Hi,

Until now we haven't used the machining module in SolidDesigner.
However, I played with it a couple of times, and the thread functionallity, for example, looks far better than the thread function that I tried in Solid Library a couple of years ago.

I managed to set a number of default values for the machining functions (like switching of the labels), but I don't understand how I can set the Chamfer depth of threaded holes to 0 (well, there are more things, but if I understand this one, I can do the rest myself).

There is quite some information in the help docs, but this part of the docs is too confusiong for me....:confused:

The reason why I want to set the chamfer depth to 0 is that it makes the Annotation drawings (esp. Flat View) clearer.

Does anyone know how to do this????

Thanks!
Regards,
Jaap Kramer

Please see the attached file for an example of what we've done. Using a similar file (or the same file if you like), make the Chamfer Rad the same as the Pilot Rad.

I've just discovered it doesn't work so well w/ v12. I'll let you know when I get it figured out a little more (w/ CoCreate's help).

Well, at least it works perfectly with v.11 :)
Thanks!
