Hole wizard csk & cbore bug
Hole wizard csk & cbore bug
(OP)
I have just noticed that a hole wizard countersunk hole with an additional csk depth (to lower the screw head below flush) generates incorrect values for the csk dia on a drawing callout using the dimension "hole callout" icon button. If I just dimension the csk with the "dimension" button, I get the correct larger csk dia.
For instance a #10 socket head screw csk has a default csk dia of .411. If I require the screw head to be .010 below flush the csk dia should be .428. THe "hole callout" button gives the .411 dia dimension, as if it is ignoring the .010 aditional head depth.
Counterbore depths are the same way. If you change the default depth setting the revised depth is ignored when dimensioning the drawing.

I can't believe I am the only one who has noticed this. Also along the same line, the cbore wizard has a similar bug. Seems that an extra cbore depth specified using the hole wizard is not picked up by using the "hole callout" icon for dimensioning.
HAs anyone else noticed this? My first indication was when the assembly tchs asked me why the flat head screws were not recessed below the surface. Just for grins I then checked the cbore depth of another hole & found it to be the incorrect dimension, although the model is correct.

I used the Head Clearance & Type option, set the head clearance to .010 and select "Increased C'Sink".
The C'Sink measures .428, but the hole callout tool still shows a .411 C'Sink.
As a work around, you can change the C'Sink Dia. to .428 and leave the head clearance at 0.00
