Hi,
i know that the tool hole has 2 options: straight hole and standard hole. I want to make a standard hole on a surfce of a block with pointed cone shape on the bottom like what the standard hole icon shows. How can I do that? thanks.
 
you need to create a sketch hole if you are using WF2 and WF3 but in WF4 this can be done without sketching the section, this is a n enhancement of WF4..
 
Apollo I am not very clear about u r question it will be better if u can upload some picture

still i think you can creat a point on the surface and create a standard hole on it using on point option
 
I have a picture here to show you that I want to create a hole as shown on B, which has the taper end at the bottom.

I was just curious that what about the hole simbol, the second one on the right next to the hole tool you used? I mean the one that says create standard hole....
 
the hole next to the straight hole is a standard hole icon used to created a threaded hole, there are 3 types of hole using WF2 and WF3 namely ISO,UNC,UNF type threaded hole. Using WF4 there 6 types namely ISO, ISO_7, NPT, NPTF, UNC, and UNF.
 
it is so great that new standard holes has been added in the hole option

You people are lucky to be in US where there are somany means of studying proe

so many pro experts around so much of money to buy all required modules of proe
 
davisdonny,


can you show me how to create a multiple views drawing? let say I have a model and how can I make a drawing from it. I know how to create a drawing but when I right click and choose show dimensions it looks like a jungle of dimensions stacking on top to each other! I also try the clean up dimension but it doesn't do much. I also want to know how to show a cutaway or section view of the part too. thanks.
