Force hole callout (.hol) use internal, on existing cad geometry
hole_file_resolution use internal
How do I updated old files so that any hole callout they are using is saved internally, without going back through every part and updating every hole callout?
Up till now, cad files have not been saving .hol files internally.
The .hol files have since been updated to include default_callout_format_data. (which allowed me to combine multiple files into one)
So using the same file names on .hol callouts wont work, because I was able to reduce the total number required.
The main issue, now when I go to put in a hole, there are multiple ‘Thread Type’ selections and half of them will be unused going forward.
But if I remove them, old files will contain incomplete hole callouts due to the ‘hole_file_resolution use internal’ not being set when the part was created.
Hiding the old .hol files so they can still be read but are not displayed would be acceptable as well, but I’m not seeing any options for that.
Any suggestions on how to use the new .hol files without watering down the ‘Thread type’ dropdown with outdated options would be much appreciated.
Thank you!
