Has anyone made any hole charts in 2001 or WF/2? I have some
large plates with a plethora of holes. Ordinate and conventional
dimensioning crowds the drawing too much. Thanks

It's very easy to make hole charts in WF 2.0


Create a coordinate system where plane contained holes iscoincident with XY


click tool>hole table> Create, and you'll be prompted to seclect the CS.


Next, point out where you wantthe hole table to be placed...


That's all...


Also, you cansearch pro/engineer help for further reference...

One word of caution...


Hole chart would take holes created by the "hole" command.


If you want to include holes created by the Extrude Cut command, create on Datum axes instead of Holes.
 
I've used hole charts in WF1.


But all the re-formatting I do reverts back to its original style when the "update" command is used.


Any offers of help om how to prevent this from happening.
