This task shows you how to place a
connector on a hole in a V4 document that has been imported into V5. |
 |
1. |
Click on
Start - Mechanical Design - Part Design. You need to have a
license to use the Part Design product. If you do not have a license, use
the compass method outlined below to place the connector. |
|
2. |
Select the part geometry near the
hole on which you want to place a connector.

|
|
3. |
Click the
Sketcher button
.
The sketching mode will appear. |
|
4. |
Zoom into the hole and, using the
three-point circle tool
,
draw a circle that conforms to the inside of the hole. |
|
5. |
Create a point at the center of the
hole, using the point tool
.

This is all the geometry you need in order to place a connector over the
hole. You can now follow the steps outlined in
Creating
Connectors. |
|
6. |
Using the compass
Position the compass on the center line of the hole (holes in V4 models
have a center line).

|
|
7. |
Change to a view that gives the
clearest view, in this case the top view.

|
|
8. |
Adjust the compass so that you have
the correct plane and alignment. The compass provides the geometry needed
by a connector to snap to. |
|
9. |
Follow the steps given in
Creating
Connectors. |
