Hole wizard
Hole wizard
(OP)
I am a solid works newbie and was told that there was an easy way transfer (top down) holes from existing details for fastening. I was originally told that when "positioning" a hole in the wizard that the cursor would "pick up" the reference geometry hole center if you looked straight down the barrel of reference hole. Its not working like this for me. The only way that I know how to do this is create a sketch and convert the reference hole geometry, then create a point, then position my hole in the hole wizard using this point; that is kind of how you have to do it in Inventor, by creating a sketch and transferring reference geometry. This is driving me nuts, and I know that its something stupid that I am doing wrong.

Iumcad… SW will do exactly what you want to.

Inferred relations are one of the best things about SW. Why you are not able to do it I don’t know, it has always worked for me. Does anyone know of an option setting that turns off Inferred relations?
Maybe you are trying to infer a hole that’s UNDER the part you are sketching on? SW can do that but you have to have some options set properly.
