Hole Sym Erase All ( Drawing Editor )

Tool summary :

  • Automatically deletes all hole symbols that are on shown layers in your current drawing.
  • In a drawing that is not a crane placement drawing , you can erase hole symbols only from comment layers . In crane placement drawings, you can erase objects on non-comment layers as well as on comment layers.
  • Shown layers are visible layers (layers marked " Show "). Since Hole Sym Erase All only works on visible layers, you can -- prior to activating this tool -- turn off particular layers to exclude hole symbols that are on those layers from being deleted.
