Fixings

The hole definitions are accessed from GPART elements with a PURP equal to HOLE and PRITYPE equal to FIXING. The SECTYPE attribute is set to describe the different hole shapes. The description displayed in the window is obtained from the RTEXT of the DETREF of the GPART.

In some cases the hole is rotated around its origin. To allow the orientation of holes a special ppoint has been created. The ppoint needs to have a PURP set to HMOR and can have any ppoint number. If the PURP is not set the ppoint number must be set to 9.

If these criteria for Fixing elements are not met, the hole management system does not function.
