Hole Table Multiple Letters same size hole
Hole Table Multiple Letters same size hole
(OP)
OK, making 4 patterns of 6-32 holes. (Luckily in this case they were blind holes.) The piece part was a test fixture and we wanted those 4 patterns to have different letters, and we put lines to connect them on the face to more clearly define the groupings. The groupings were to show how each unit mounted to the test fixture.
Since the holes were blind, we were able to grab the edges defining different levels of the hole and that gave us A1...An, B1...Bn, etc. Since we had 4 hole patterns and a blind hole only has three edges we made an additional cut to define another edge to grab. This is an insanely tedious task. each edge needs to be grabbed individually (at least in 09 you can just keep clicking, in 08 you had to hold ctrl to select multiples).
Is there ANY way to just grab the face and the hole letters will increment based on the patterns and not just the sizes? As it already does this by sizes.
Thank you for any ideas.

2) any ideas about a thru hole?
I'm using 2009 right now. I'll try out 08.

Any hints/ideas to have it initially recognize the 4 decimals? I'll check document properties.
