Hi,
I installed the student edition of CREO 6. I wanted to add a RMS Threaded Hole in a part. There is only three choices : ISO, UNC and UNF. So I searched through Google. It landed me on a page and on a YouTube video explaining how to create a text file with a ".hol" filetype. It is a plain text file which describe all the parameters of the custom hole. This file is to be placed at the following file structure : C:\Program Files\PTC\Creo 6.0.2.0\Common Files\text\hole.
Then, it is necessary to add the file in the "path" as follow : File > Options > Configuration Editor > Find...
I did all of that, it doesn't work! I don't see the new thread in the list for the hole feature.
Is that because it is a student edition?
Is that because I do something wrong?
I attached the ".hol" file to this posting.
Thanks,
Joel
