Find
Summary
A wizard enables you to select the type and the view of the countersunk rivet to insert. You specify the length by dragging. If the system cannot find a rivet to match, it displays a dialog box to enable you to select from a list of available sizes. Only the countersunk rivets listed as standard content are available with this command. Use the AMCONTENTLIB command to access custom content.
Use the Select a Countersunk Head Rivet dialog box to select the type and the view to insert.
Depending on the selected view there are differences in the insertion process:
List of Prompts
The following prompts are displayed.
- Insertion point
- Specifies the location of one end of the rivet.
- Hole length
- Specify the length of the hole the rivet goes into. You can click in the drawing to indicate the length and rotation around the insertion point.
- Rotation angle
- Specifies how far to rotate the rivet about its insertion point. This prompt is displayed only when you insert a side view of the rivet. Although the rotation angle is not significant for the side view, the system uses this information when generating projected views.
