Hello,

I have a Problem with the Hole Tool in Catia V5 R2023 Sp3. I have a Part in which i want to add a Hole at an angle. I only want it to cut the Part at one specific point and it cuts the right amount in Hole direction, but in the opposit direction it Cuts the Part also. In R2023 Sp1 HFX01 I used to create a Plane and a Point in Part Design and mark both before starting the Hole Tool. Then it would Place the Hole on that point, perpenticular to the plane and only Cut the Part in Hole direction behind the plane. Anything before the plane wasnt cut. Thats what im trying to do now. But I recently had to switch my Laptop because the old one broke, so I had to Reinstall Catia V5 R2023 but had to install the newer version so i had to switch from R33 Sp1 HFX01 to R33 Sp3 HFX05 (R33 = R2023 right? I know i Have the R2023 version, so if R33 is right i switched from Sp1 HFX01 to Sp3 HFX05). I had no issues till now with that Change. Everything worked as before but now i need to make a hole in one specific Spot of the Part. The Problem is that the Hole doesn't use the plane as a Start Point anymore, instead it starts at the first point along the Hole axis where it crosses the Part and i can only Change the depth behind the plane (in Hole direction with Typ: Blind). I cant just start the Hole from the other side because of the Parts geometry. If i did, it would cut twice just in the other direction. As I sad it worked in Sp1 without a Problem so either the versions works different for the Hole tool or I changed a Setting which causes this behavior. I cant find the setting by my self and also AI couldnt help me with that. So I hope someone here knows what settings could solve this Problem. If you have an idea which setting I should check/change or how i could do it with an other way, please comment and make a Suggestion. I just cant use a Pocket for the Hole because i need to be able to add a thread etc.

Thanks for your help
