Purpose

Duplicate holes (holes with same size and location) serve no purpose. They just lengthen the drilling process and incur wear and tear on the drill bit. Clicking on duplicate holes causes the pile-up menu to appear. Select the hole you want from the list. Placing the cursor over the name in the list highlights the feature.

Function

Reports holes whose centers are closer than duph_tolerance. Measurements are shapes representing the drill with the smallest index in layer.
