Hole Pattern Hole PatternThe Hole Pattern function creates a circular hole pattern or hole grid pattern based on the settings that you define in the Data Entry tab.
Hole Pattern supports the use of the snap increment when using the Pick method to set the origin location. The snap increment allows you to get precise results when using mouse selection and helps to reduce data entry modifications.
