Note:

·       The spot face depth of an orifice cavity is equal to the depth of the main cavity plus the standard spot face depth of the orifice cavity in the MDTools library.

·       Both the orifice cavity and the main cavity will be two separate cavities and considered as two different cavities in MDTools.

·       The orifice cavity automatically constrains to the main cavity.

·       The orifice cavity automatically relocates when the main cavity relocated.
