    Sheet Metal Holes

    Well I just loaded 6, and working on my very first part. A sheet metal part.
    In 5.3 when defining the depth of the hole, you were able to type in
    "Thickness"
    In 6.0 all you can type in is "Thickne"
    Is this a bug?
    Please use plain text.

    Keep typing. Mine "word wraps" but does accept the entire word, it just
    truncates it.

    Mine doesn't word wrap, it continues to beep
    with every keystroke after the 7 character limit.

    Opps. I didn't pay attention. It changes to red after 6 numbers but I can
    type in Thickness.

    The text also stays red, whereas before, the word "Thickness"
    would turn black after typing in the last s.

    Highlight the value, then RMB (Right Mouse Button) and select List
    Parameters, then select Thickness.

    Hey Mike.

    I can do what your saying, but it won't accept in for a depth.
    Just for yucks, I tried it for the diameter, and that worked, but not for
    the depth.

    Thanks for the tip though.

    -Ken

    It didn't work for me the first time either. I knew that it SHOULD work, so
    I kept at it. I found out, that if you double click Thickness, I had more
    consistent results.
