how to make the "hole chart" visible??

how to make the "hole chart" visible??

(OP)
Dear all,

we want to add a hole chart with ISO pass through holes with counterbore slots for heads and washers.
We placed the attached hole chart in the mounting points, but we can not get it to be visualized..

for sure there is a missing trick, but I do not find specific indications around..

with regards,
Edo777

I just put them in the loadpoint/text/hole folder. File extension has to be .hol

I don't know ... it is the same I did, but I do not see how to show the options I need (i.e. washer tailored counterbore)..
did you wanted to do the same, dgallup?
Did you had a short name for your file names, or loose and long?
thanks in advance,
Edo

Very short, I believe it can only be 4 or 5 characters before the .hol

Early wildfire days, the .hol file name was limited to 3 characters. I believe it is longer in Creo, but not by much.

You will also need to have a unique name for the THREAD_SERIES parameter.
