Hello,

Im new to the forum and looking for a little help.

I have created a part with a set of holes in it. The holes were done using a pattern.

I know need to go back and change the the hole so it is counter sunk. when i go back into edit my initial hole i do not have the options to make changes to the hole. all of the buttons are grayed out.

Do i need to wipe out the pattern and start over?

thanks for the help. Looking forward to being part of the MCAD community.

Hi Daniel
Welcome to the forum dear.
I think you need to create standard hole instead of simple one. PTC removed the counter sink and counterbore options from simple hole (I might be wrong as I didnt worked on Creo from years). Now you need to create standard clear hole, then you can man countersink or counterbore.

Just create a chamfer on the pattern leader and pattern the chamfer by reference.
