Hi,

I don't understnd your 1. request.

For 2., do you know you can "quickly" copy an operation in TS'7? Just highlight your operation (drill, chamfer, radius), press CTRL and drag&drop your operation to the destination (face, edge..)!!

HI,

For item 1.... Just use rotative selection on the profile. This will allow you to select just the single segment instead of the entire profile. (Rotative selection = hold left mouse button down and tap the right mouse button. Then let go).

For item 2....Drag and drop is great! But you can also create a series of points in a sketch. Once you are done defining them all, be sure you are not in a function, then right mouse click and choose "Drilling group" from the contextual menu. Or go to the Drilling icon, right click on it, and you will find the drilling group icon there.

Have fun with TopSolid 7!
Happy Designing

group holes in a part and in a assembly

Unread post by solidsnake »

thanks for the replies all ok
a copy of the holes is ok when I work in a part ...!
I tried to copy the holes in an assembly ... but the drag does not work because
the whole assembly is copied and not just holes ... why?
how to make a copy of the holes when working in an assembly?
I found only the command drilling and not the group of holes
command in the drilling plan for each hole ... it takes a group of plans?
thanks

Unread post by solidsnake »

in a sketc to copy a symmetric profile parametric with respect to the original?
I tried drag and drop but the copied profile is parametric with respect to the original
when I change the size of the original profile does not change the symmetric?
the original profile to a pink color
after copying the original profile to a blue color and the copied profile to a gray color but are not parametric why?

But it seems your holes are made in the part, isn't it? So you can't copy them in an assembly structure...
