James,

Thank you for the file. I can't open it! I have changed the extention to (.igs) and several others. Do you know what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks,
Peter

Are you trying to open it, instead of importing the file??

Just a thought.

Try downloading, extract from zip file, then import into pcdmis as a .cad file. You should not need to change the extension.

Since this on Demo Blocks. I don't use cad at all, so I have been playing w/ the demo block and the cad file. I am trying to program different holes different way just for fun when I have time. I am trying to use the auto Cylinder feature. I finally figured out how to get the deep of measurement I want. (ex. circle 1 - I am using a -.75 at 3 rows) but it still wants to measure at 0 at the top. How can I get this to measure at -75 deep and -125 deep on the 3rd level.
TIA

Enter the value below the surface that you want in the "depth" area. The "height" area tells it the lowest probing level in the hole, the middle will be between the other 2.

Thanks TK. I will try that, I wasn't using the height area. Was this in the help files. I was looking for something dealing w/ cad so I may have missed it. I had an hour to play yesterday.

Yup, auto features I think. For a hole, XYZ is the location of the hole at the surface, depth is for how far below the surface you want to probe, height is how deep for the lowest level. Be sure you check hole not stud. Watch them vectors!

$92.00?!?!?

Don't think it's in the budget this year...


Mr. Bob, Seriously?? If you really have three, what would it cost us?? Is this the latest and greatest of the older one?


Thank you...
