Hole Cutter

Hole Cutter/Editor – Cannot resolve external resource into attachment.

The Hole Cutter tool allows holes to be selected, cut and edited. The hole cutter has the following functionality:

  • Clicking within an existing polygon will start the creation of a hole. Creating a hole is the same as creating a polygon using the Polygon Tool except that creation is restricted to within the polygon. Notice that the created vertex is within a selected polygon

  • Clicking an existing hole will select it.

  • Vertices in selected holes can be moved when in Advanced Edit Mode.

  • As with the Edit Geometry Tool the vertex operations can be performed on multiple vertices at once if many vertices are selected.
