Hole/thread notes?

[Anonymous]

I think I may have asked this before but is there a way to show "hole/thread notes" with alternate units?

Its in the dimension style, second tab.

Hal, even when the alternate units is checked, it does not show up in hole
notes (tables or individual features).

Does this work for you?

As far as I can tell, Autodesk never considered
mixing metric with standard drills.

This was brought up when we first got
v5.0.

Sorry, I was looking at a drawing and some dimensions that I had done a
work around on. I used the regular dimensioning tool and added the
parameters for c'sink and angle and c'bore and depth to the through hole
dimension, then turned on the alternate dimensions in the style and
added missing metrics. That way the inch dims updated automatically and
I only had to update a few metrics manually.

Again, sorry, I should have looked closer before responding.

Thanks Hal. That's quite a work-around. Here's hoping for R8......... 🙂
