Hello

A quick question about this function, I have a little problem, and I'm sure there's a very simple thing to do.

Example

I create a sketch with 3 points, I use this sketch to drill 3 holes (with the points). So far no problems.

Following a modification I finally only need 2 holes, how do I delete 1 holes by editing the function .??

I haven't found the trick to deselect the 3rd  point (I don't want to delete the 3rd point from the sketch).

 

So far, I'm removing the function, and I'm creating it with the 2 holes. But I guess there's another solution.

 

Thank you

Hello

If the goal is not to create the hole of a point always present in the sketch, this is not possible to my knowledge, we can transform the lines into construction lines, but we will have to delete the points in a hole function so that they are not included.

Edit: I assumed that the piercing assistant was used.

Replace the point in question with 2 intersecting segements and add or remove the point of the hole if necessary.

Hello.

 

There is a point that is not very clear in what you explain, but most certainly clear to you.

 

You want to deselect the 3rd point in the sketch without deleting it... and so you delete the function to redo it with only 2 points. In conclusion, it's as if you were removing the 3rd point, isn't it?

Hello

Normally just open the function in position, select the point to be deleted and right click on it and just delete/delete and your piercing will be deselected.

Good luck.

If you created a sketch with three points before doing the drilling function, you end up with the sketch of the function constrained by the first sketch.

The manipulation. de Hdijoux is therefore the right one.

How do I use an existing sketch with the Drilling Wizard?

As a PL,

Unlike inventor which handles 2 types of points for the analogous function, with SW if you place a sketch entity of type point, it creates a hole at that point.

If you want to keep the position of the point, I don't see any other solution than to make a construction geometry (based on lines, arcs and circles).
