Working in the field of jewelry -(SW2016)-, I often use the wizard for drilling in order to make the jeweling of my models (which are very little geometric, I make a lot of organic shapes such as flowers, animal shapes, etc...) so I have piercings in all directions.
My concern is that in the absence of information on the subject, I have a lot of trouble making the nomenclature at the end. Drilling tables only seem to work if the holes are oriented along one of the three XYZ axes, right? And all other solutions are laborious as well.
Is there an order that I don't know that allows me to create an automatic bill of materials? Or if not, is it possible to set the drilling wizard so that when creating the function in the tree, I can make some information appear in the name of the function (especially the diameter)?
I don't have Solidworks on hand but normally when you use the drilling wizard in its name there is first the number of the function and then the diameter used... Check see and just put a screenshot of the creation tree.
I took a look, I know what you're talking about, I forgot to mention that I use custom sizes that I save as favorites, the holes referenced in solidworks are way too big for my models (I do countersunk holes that range from 0.8mm to 3mm in diameter in general, rarely more)
I looked a little bit I didn't know this manipulation, indeed we are quite close there, thank you very much.
So it marks me the number of holes that are rigorously identical in their settings, right? For example, if the depth is different, it won't count it when quotating? because I tend to create a function by drilling, on this type of parts it's very laborious to centralize all the diameters in a single function, does it still work?
