Hi All - I'm a new user having a strange problem with the hole tool. I create a hole in my solid and the want to create a pocket (shallow hole) on the same center. When I try to add the new hole detail, although the center snap point is displayed, the new hole is always placed on a quadrant snap point.

If I do it the other way around - i.e. pocket first and then hole through remaining solid it works.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Hi,
if we say about "simply hole" i discover so if second hole (in hole) is smaler, then e.things it's ok, but if bigger, new hole is not in center. Try another tools, like "counter bore" or another methods.

see u
