BOLT CIRCLE
BOLT CIRCLE
(OP)
Is there an easy way to insert a bolt circle and maybe tie the dimension of the bolt circle to a bolt pattern?

RE: BOLT CIRCLE
1. You can show the hole wizard sketch and dimension it. I always add the text "BCD" to the dimension.
2. You can also just create a circle sketch in the drawing and dimension in the same way.
3. Otherwise you can click on the hole callout and add the text and symbols to the the Dimension Text window.
Hope that helps.

When positioning the points on the HW sketch, use a construction circle, and add "BCD" to the diameter dimension. Then when using Insert > Model Items to place the dims, the BCD dimension will be seen. To complete the picture, RMB select the positioning sketch from the drawing view in the View Manager and select Show.
