Options

Sets defaults for row merging, hole tags, tag order, and view filters.

Row Merge Options sets default for merging hole table rows.

None

Preserves legacy hole table formatting.

Reformat Table on Custom Hole Match reindexes the hole tags and resorts contents when a Match Custom Hole operation is done.

Numbering replaces the alphanumeric hole tags with sequential numbering of the holes in the hole table.

Rollup

Combines the hole note cells for the holes of the same type in the hole table. Only the first hole in a series is still listed in the table. The rolled-up cell adopts the formatting of the first row (hole) in the series.

Delete Tags on Rollup preserves legacy behavior. Except for the first in a series of hole tags, deletes tags from the associative view. Clear the check box to preserve tags.

Secondary Tag Modifier on Rollup causes all hole tags in the table and view to include the secondary numerator. Clear the check box to drop the secondary modifier. For example, A1, A2, and B1 become A, A, and B.

Combine Notes

Combines description cells for the holes of the same type in the selected hole table.

Reformat Table on Custom Hole Match reindexes the hole tags and resorts contents when a Match Custom Hole operation is done.

Numbering replaces the alphanumeric hole tags with sequential numbering of the holes in the hole table.

Hole Tag Options

Sets defaults for formatting hole tags.

Preserve Tagging causes permanent hole identifiers for each hole tagged when the table is first placed. Clear the check box to respecify holes when holes are added or deleted from the model).

Tagging is preserved only with respect to changes to the model, such as when you add, delete, suppress or unsuppress hole features. Manual changes to the hole table, such as when you resort, change tag order, and filter hole types, are not affected.

Use Leader generates a leader for any hole tag dragged away from the hole with which it is associated. Clear the check box to hide the leader of hole tags dragged away from an associated hole automatically.

Default Tag Order

Sets default tag order of holes in a hole chart. Existing hole tables are not affected by these settings.

Arrange by Position tags holes relative to their position on the selected view. Position is arranged with YDIM as the primary key and XDIM as secondary key. If YDIM and XDIM are equal, hole size is the tertiary sorting key, smallest to largest.

Arrange by Size tags holes in order by size (smallest to largest). Size refers to the drill diameter (HDIA) parameter for drilled, counterbored, and countersunk holes. The tap drill diameter (TDDIA) is used for threaded holes. If holes are of equal size, holes are sorted by position. Group Hole Types must be unselected. Holes added from a center mark are added to the end of the list.

Group Hole Types tags holes by hole type and then by choice of size or position. Existing hole tables are not affected by these settings. The group order is:

• Drilled holes includes extruded cut circles and circular voids.

  • Thru
  • Blind

• Threaded holes

  • Thru: Full Thread, Depth Thread
  • Blind: Full Thread, Depth Thread

• Counterbored holes and Countersunk holes. If a counterbored or countersunk hole is tapped, the tapped designation is disregarded for grouping.

  • Thru
  • Blind

• Center marks

Default Filters (View)

Sets defaults for features and hole types to include in a view-based hole table. Existing hole tables are not affected by these settings.

Included Hole Types selects hole types to include or exclude in view-based hole tables. Select a check box to include drilled, counterbored, countersunk, or threaded holes. Clear a check box to exclude the hole type from view-based hole tables. Not available if hole features are excluded from view-based hole tables.

• Drilled holes includes drilled hole features in view-based hole tables.
• Counterbored holes includes counterbored hole features in view-based hole tables. May be selected when creating selection-based or feature-based hole tables. Clear the check box to exclude from new view-based hole tables, and make edges or counterbored holes unselectable after you add a hole or create a selection-based or feature-based hole table.
• Threaded holes includes threaded holes in view-based hole tables. Allows selection of threaded holes for adding holes or creating selection-based and feature-based hole tables. Clear the check box to exclude threaded hole features when adding holes or creating a selection-based or feature-based hole table, and when creating new view-based hole tables.

Clear the check box to exclude countersunk hole features when adding holes or creating a selection-based or feature-based hole table, and when creating new view-based hole tables. Makes edges of countersunk hole features unselectable after you add holes or create selection-based or feature-based hole tables.
