Centerlines

[rmogensen]

Is there a way to put centerlines between holes in detail drawing views?  Coming for a Solid works background, you could sketch centerlines between holes in any drawing view.  You could constrain them to specific geometry in that view, such as the center point of a hole.  Is there a way to do this I Creo?

I just usually show the dimensions and move the extension lines to the correct feature. Creo will automatically add breaks when the file is plotted if the high quality output is set in the config. If required, the axes of the holes can be shown and then the end of whatever one seems suitable can be grabbed and dragged to what ever place seems suitable. They are automatically constrained. No longer necessary to waste time sketching something like that. There is parametric sketching, but it's pretty rare to need it.

The Creo Customization forum is usually for software development and automation.
