How do I align a hole to a plane? I am trying to set the orientation of a cross hole in a cylindrical part so that the axis of the hole is coincident to a plane.
It seems like the only options I see to constrain a hole to a plane is the tangent constraint.
Create a plane on the surface of the cylinder - may be a good idea to make it parallel to an existing plane (less work).
Start your hole feature. Set your point (for the hole location) on the surface (automatigly creates the tangency constraint).
Select the point an mate it to the surface. Bam! it's start and should go through the part.
Dimension to the height and ouila! It's A hole!
