Example: Using Embedded Hole Files to Redefine or Create Standard Holes
This example shows how you can use an embedded hole file to redefine existing holes or create new Standard holes.
1. User A creates a UNC hole using the custom hole file (CUSTOM_UNC) and sets the hole_file_resolution configuration option to use_internal.
◦ Hole tab with the custom hole file (CUSTOM_UNC) selected
◦ A hole with a customized diameter value
2. User A saves the part model. This embeds the CUSTOM_UNC hole file in the part.
3. User A sends the part model to User B, who has the CUSTOM_UNC file with different settings and the hole_file_resolution configuration option is set to the default replace_with_external value.
4. User B edits the part by redefining the hole that User A has created. This changes the hole settings according to the CUSTOM_UNC hole file available with User B.
◦ Redefined hole with changed diameter value
5. To resolve the problem of a change in the values of a hole according to the local CUSTOM_UNC hole file, User B must set the hole_file_resolution configuration option to use_internal and redefine the hole by using the embedded custom hole file (CUSTOM_UNC). User B can also create new holes using the embedded custom hole file.
