-
From the Features section of the action bar,
click Hole
.
If your geometry does not have a sketch entity to use as the hole origin, you
need to add a sketch object on the geometry.
-
From the Sketch section of the action bar, click Point
.
-
In the work area, click on the geometry to place the point
where you want the hole.
You can use other sketch commands to create sketch entities on the
geometry, for example, sketch a rectangle to use the four corner
entities as the location for the holes.
-
In the
Hole dialog box, click the
Placement tab.
-
Select a sketch entity from the
work area
to specify the location for the hole.
You can select multiple sketch entities if all the holes have the
same design requirements. If you have a sketch object selected with multiple
entities, all the possible hole positions are selected by default.
- Optional:
Click
Ignore construction geometry to exclude any
construction geometry from your selections.
- Optional:
To skip some of the selected sketch entities in a sketch object,
click
Skip instance.
A marker is displayed on all the sketch entities in the
selected sketch object. Click the marker to prevent that entity from creating a
hole.
