Hole notes for simple hole

Hi,

I have been creating my own standard hole tables and notes. I made some progress on the "standard hole" option (the one with threading, csink, cbore options). The standard hole only allows a clearance hole or a drilled hole. My problem is that the drilled hole only allows me to have a pointed tip. so I see it as I have 2 options, but I don't know that either option is even feasible.

1. Can standard holes have a flat bottom drill?

2. Can I create notes for simple holes using a .hol file?

    You can change the drill point angle to 180 to get a milled bottom.

    You might make a table specifcally for NODP (no drill point).

    That is a good idea. I don't see a value for the drill point angle in the table anywhere. Do you know the variable name is for that or how to find that?
