How to edit hole thread

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hi-

 

Sorry for the dumb question, but how do I edit the properties of this thread? I tried right clicking on the thread once selected to bring up the hole dialog. I was able to get the dialog opened somehow but once I changed the thread size the OK button was grayed out.

 

Thanks, j

That is not the dialog image that you attached? Can you File>Export and then Attach the *.f3d file here that exhibits this behavior?

Right click on the Hole feature in the Timeline and select Edit Feature.

You can now make whatever changes you need.

If you started the Hole tool again, you're creating a new hole. If you Edit Feature from the timeline, as @TheCADWhisperer said, you're working on the existing hole.

Couldn't be easier, too bad I couldn't figure that out myself. Thank you.
