Drilling - default to depth to tip

Hiya All, First post on here, so please be gentle !

Just 'upgraded' to Creo Parametric 1.0, but have been using Pro/E since Version 2001.

Anyway, would really love to know if there's a setting buried deep within config.pro (if creo still uses it ???) where i can change the default setting for drilling depth from shoulder to tip ?

Now that it's inside the details sub menu, its proving to be a bit time consuming !

cheers guys

not sure. I haven't had the chance to Play with the new creo Parametric yet.(Probably won't until 2.0.) So they moved the tip selection from the drill depth menu to a different area? It is nice to have it sitting with the depth like it is in WF5. Very easy to change which I do quite often depending on the sequence.

They've moved it, it's now a few extra clicks. Doesn't sound like a big deal, but it's a more than it used to be !

99% of the time I program to drill point, and always wondered if I could change the default ?

I think I will stick with WF 5 for a while... More mouse picks... doesn't sound like an improvement to me
