Standard Holes & DOWEL holes

[HugoHermans]

Is anybody using standard holes for dowel holes ?? Standard holes are
driving by some thread, but dowel holes have no thread involved. How do you
standardize dowel holes ?

Regards, Hugo.

Uncheck "Include thread surface" from the Shape slide-up panel in the Hole
dashboard?

1/
This is not possible (WF1) of blind holes. And dowel holes are mostly
blind.
2/
As for threaded holes, dowel holes are drilled upto a certain depth, and
finished upto a depth less then the drilled depth.
3/
Feature Information does not identify the hole as a dowel hole, but as a
special kind of fastener hole.

So, this is not a decent solution.

This is what we do.

Create a threaded hole blind and turn-off the cosmetic thread (In the Shape
Popup, as Nicolas Hostein suggested)

I filed an enhancement request some time ago to allow a drilled hole to be
blind, no resolution yet.
