Circle centerlines

[ptc-4861824]

I've looked on here for some information but with no luck.

I need to be able to add centerlines to arcs when I am making final manufacturing drawings. I know how to get the typical holes, but I need another way to add them to slots for example.

Thanks

You can add a datum point in your extrude sketches and they will create datum axes.

You can also have extruded arcs generate axes by adding the config.pro option: show_axes_for_extr_arcs yes

Whats the best way to reload your config file after you edit it?

Use the configuration editor "import/Export" option on the lower right.

Unfortunately, this particular option does not change exising features. I find that fact annoying. I leave it turned on by default and often get a slew of axes I have to place on a HIDE_ME layer.
