Galvanising holes labelling

I use the galvanising holes option a fair bit in a lot of my work and the hole diameters are always labelled in the drawings which for us, is just extra unneeded clutter.

 

How can i filter out the labelling of galvanising holes in annotation strategies please?

I've tried 'holes from bolts', but this doesn't seem to work - unless i'm getting the wrong combination of settings...

 

TIA

Hi @philAA8WT ,

 

it would be ideal, to define a model role for a hole, but this isn't currently possible (you will find also an requirement in the Idea Station for this).

 

If you look in Management Tools / Table editor / AstorBase /  ScrewHoleType, you will find the predefined (screw) hole types.

 

What other options do you have? If you use standard holes for the screws / anchors only, you can set the galvanising hole typ eg. as blind hole with the depth greater than the thickness of the material. As it is a special hole, you can define this separately in the drawing style as needed (move the "special hole" line as high as possible in the table to take it into account first).

 

I hope, it's called "special hole", have German version only.
