Place Connector on Hole in V4 Document
 |
This task shows you how to place a connector on a hole in a V4 document that has been imported into V5. | |
|
1. | Click on Start - Mechanical Design - Part Design. You need to have a license to use the Part Design product. If you do not have a license then use the compass method, outlined below, to place the connector. |
| 2. | Select the part geometry near the
hole on which you want to place a connector.
|
|
| 3. | Click the
Sketcher button
 .
The sketching mode will appear. |

 ,
draw a circle that conforms to the insides of the hole. |
|
| 5. | Create a point at the center of the
hole, using the point tool
 .
This is all the geometry you need in order to place a connector over the hole. You can now follow the steps outlined in Creating Connectors. |
