Selecting Holes using the Hole Selection Tool

The Hole Selection Tool enables custom selection of single or multiple holes using a dialog that displays a plan view of the drillhole project. This tool enables you to view "all holes", "selected holes" and holes including "full traces" or "labels". You can select interactively by drawing a polygon or by clicking holes individually. This method is best used if you have pre-existing knowledge of your drillholes and is an excellent way to preview the locations of your drillhole and the extents of your drillhole traces.
