CAM: Add Hole(s) to a drillgeom

Hi everyone,

Is it possible to add a simple hole to a drill geometry in a journal?

My code looks like this:

Dim featureGeometry1 as CAM.FeatureGeometry = CType(workpart.CAMSetup.camgroupcollection.findobject("DRILL_GEOM"), CAM.FeatureGeometry)

Dim drillGeomBuilder1 as CAM.DrillGeomBuilder
drillGeomBuilder1= workpart.CAMSetup.CAMGroupcollection.CreateDrillGeomBuilder(featureGeometry1)

I would be happy to have something like drillGeomBuilder1.AddPoint(tag) but I have found nothing using NXOpen API (camgeom) or .Net.

Thank you

version : NX7.5

I don't know much about the CAM module, nor do I currently have access to a CAM license to try out any code; hopefully, someone else will stop by that knows the answer. If not, I'd suggest asking this question in the Siemens' NX Languages forum; you can find out more about it in the 'Resources' link (at left).

I also encountered this problem. Did you solve?
