This task shows you how to create a thread with a reference, either circular (circle or point) or linear (line). In this particular case, you will apply a thread to a hole with a line as reference. | ||
Open the Brackets_views06.CATDrawing document. | ||
|
||
You can also multi-select holes before clicking the Thread icon. | ||
Activating this command displays two options in the Tools
Palette which is automatically displayed:
|
||
The thread is created according to this reference. |
||
|
||
If you want to move only one axis line, hold on the Ctrl key while you are dragging the manipulator. | ||
When creating a thread on a generative view, a message will be displayed if the center line cannot be associative to the 3D. In this case, the thread is neither linked to the 3D nor to 2D drawing elements. For example, a non-associative thread with a reference line will not be updated when the reference line is moved. | ||
