Hole Association Manager

The Hole Association Manager window is used to manage the tasks associated with holes.

The Hole Association Filter is used to select hole association(s) and structural elements to be displayed.

Select the element, specify the filter criteria and structural elements, then select Apply Filter. The selected hole associations will be displayed in the Hole Associations table.

If some of the hole associations fail, navigate to the hole and use hole management to modify the penetration, then select Apply Filter from the Hole Association Manager window.

To add elements to be managed, select Add Current Element.

To remove the automatically created penetrations, select Reset, then Refresh.

Displaying Holes

The Hole Association Manager window can also be used to display selected holes in the 3D view.

Clipped Hole View

The Focus on Hole option can be used to zoom in on a selected hole and remove all other elements from the 3D view. Make sure that the clipping and capping options are selected on the active 3D view.

From the Hole Associations table, right click to select a single hole and activate a popup menu. Select Focus on Hole; this zooms to the selected hole and clips the surrounding background.

To return to the normal view, de-select the clipping and capping options or select a different view.
