Hello, is it possible to retrieve the value of a circular sketch repetition in a dimension?
For example, I have a repetition of 4 holes Ø12 (photo below)
I would like to have a dimension that displays 4 x Ø12 without having to type it manually so that if I change my diameter or my quantity of hole, the dimension changes by itself in the room and therefore in the drawing.
Thank you in advance.
You have to use the toolbox function for this (with all the holes as a sketch or rehearsal of your choice):
Then in the drawing:
The other advantage is the repetitions driven by a repetition.
Constrain a screw in this toolbox drilling function, then repeat driven by a repeat, finally if we increase the number of occurrences the number of screws increases by itself.
Another advantage is to transform a hole into a thread with a single click, without loss of stress, or even oblong if necessary.
Which makes me say that drilling via sketch for screws is to be avoided (method that has only disadvantages!)
