Summary


Details

Is there a way to modify the Excel sheet content to be able to display left-handed (LH) holes in the Hole Callouts? 



Solution

- open the appropriate Holes spreadsheet (i.e. ANSI Inch.xlsx) 
- insert a new row into the spreadsheet 
- create a new thread family (i.e. UNC-LH) 
- add the same information as an existing thread (RH) using the new thread family 
- in order for the callout to show the LH you will need to modify the Size entry (i.e. 3/8-16 UNC-LH) 
- save and close the Excel spreadsheet 
- restart Solid Edge
