Countersunk holes in sheet metal

I can easily add size-specified holes but can the hole wizard allow you to select clearance holes for a certain screw size? Or is this something that you have to manually look up?
Thanks.

Clearance holes derived from thread data is not offered. I've seen one other request for this capability to be added.

You can define your own hole pre-sets and name them - that might save some time going forward if you work with a limited number of screw sizes.

Thanks, David. I'll have to keep a drill size chart handy, as I did in the old days. Thankfully, I am not spending the bulk of my day designing things, so it's not a big deal.

I started defining my own pre-sets for holes and it works very well, also 'forces' me to reuse fasteners I already have in my library.
