show drill sizes?

docb

When creating a footprint, is there a way to *see* the drill holes, just to make it a little easier to verify that the hole sizes look good?

    Setup - Design Parameters - Display tab and turn on display plated holes, non-plated holes, padless holes. The color is under Display - Color Visibility - Display folder - Drill Holes.

    Ok, so this is great on the screen, but is there a way to see the hole size on a *print*?

    Changing the hole color of the hole to black (or white), it still doesn't show the hole.

    There's a free app that will do this http://www.orcadmarketplace.com/t60p-topic/ProductDetails/tabid/93/ProductID/36/Default.aspx or you can create an artwork film and enable the draw holes only checkbox (need to make sure there is no etch on this film though). The App might be a better method.
