Hole Wizard mods
Hole Wizard mods
(OP)
in SW2006.
I'd like to change the HoleWizard drawing callout for tapped holes. For instance, instead of 1/4-20 Tapped Hole, we'd like 1/4-20 Tap (the omitted part of SW's default note is a given)
Also, in the model itself, how can we add a default c'sink angle & diameter ("near" and "far side" when tapping thru) to the HW so that these values don't have to be entered in every occurance?
For instance, the 1/4-20 would have a c'sink angle of 82deg (ANSI std) and .265625 (1/64 over nominal) I realize that other sizes will need differing appropriate diameters.
I've read numerous old threads regarding adding to or modifying the *.mdb files that HW uses....but what <u>program</u> is used to open the file(s), and is this the correct file to be changing for this purpose?
