    Hi Tom,

     

    To apply a torque at a center of a hole you need to select the inner face of your hole and the torque will automatically be created at the center.

     

    If the inner face of the hole is made of two surfaces (e.g. a geometry imported from CATIA) you will need to create a slightly bigger hole in the same place using the sketcher. Then using the Push/Pull tool re-size the newly created hole to its correct diameter.

     

    Thanks.
