New Hole Group (PartMaker)

Use this menu option to display the Hole Group Parameters dialog, where you can specify a new hole group for the current part by specifying details such as major cycle operation, diameter, chamfer, Z _Surf, Z_Depth, and Z_Rapid.

When you click Apply, PartMaker searches the current Cycles file to find a cycle with a diameter of major operation that is equal to the specified group diameter.

If PartMaker finds more than one matching cycle, it prompts you to select the cycle you want to use. When you have selected a cycle, PartMaker adds a new workgroup icon to the Face window. If you selected a cycle for the workgroup, PartMaker uses the cycle name as the workgroup name. If no matching cycle was found, PartMaker displays a question mark (?) symbol next to the workgroup icon.
