I have created a custom hole standard, essentially some bored holes we use often. Within this standard I have 2 sub-set 'Types' - Press Fit and Slip fit.
I have also edited the calloutformat.txt file to correctly report these holes on drawings - with one exception.
The list of variables at the bottom of the TXT file shows a variable which I assume should show me the type names similar to the variable which, when used, shows the name of the standard the hole was derived from.
The problem is when I try to use this variable it does not resolve to any value. I just get inserted into my drawing.
Does anyone know if this is a valid variable, or if it has been omitted/superseded?
Thanks,
