Hole Charts - Metric and Imperial values
Hole Charts - Metric and Imperial values
(OP)
We tend to design and detail in imperial units, including fasteners, but use metric fasteners when using metric purchase items.
Now, imagine I have a plate, with imperial holes, and metric holes. I'm using the hole wizard to create all the holes, using the correct units. The issue is the hole chart seems to be all imperial or all metric. For example, an 8mm hole shows up as .315.
How can I make the callout say 8mm, without manually over-riding the value <hw-diam>?
