Hello everybody,

I created some holes by pattern features, using the table options.

I want to make the dual dimensions for those holes in the hole table in a drawing.

Anybody have the right way to solve it!!

This does not exist so there is no right way.

You can manually build the table and place each dimension in a cell and it will present the dual dimension.

Of course, this means careful construction of your part so you have the appropriate dimensions available. Patterns too will be limited to table patterns.

However, I just ran into a bug when using the Switch Symbols.. they switch, but don't switch back (Creo 2.0 M040). So be careful if you go this route.

I will be reporting this bug.

The bug must have been a fluke. I cannot reproduce the error.

Okay, I reproduced the issue and it turns out to be a bug from back in WF5.

Worse, PTC has decided this is not worth fixing!

Anyone know how I can bring this up to the head of software quality assurance so I can let them know that this is unacceptable?

And can someone test this in Creo 3.0?... thanks
