Handling of hole requests in relation to blocks

The 'ownership' of a hole request (RFH, request for hole) is determined based on geometry, that is, how given RFHs are positioned with respect to the block area(s). This is how they are visualized:

  • In drawings – When the center of the RFH falls inside the area of the drawing, it is treated as follows:

    • When the center of the RFH is inside the area of the active block, the RFH is drawn with a solid line.

    • When the center of the RFH is inside a block area that is not active:

      • Only one block – RFH is considered part of that block and it is drawn using the solid/dash setting of that block.

      • Multiple blocks – RFH is considered part of the block with the smallest volume, and it is drawn using the solid/dash setting of that block.

  • Hull Viewer – RFH is displayed in Hull Viewer if its center is in the area of any of the displayed blocks.

  • Hole list – RFH is considered to be added in the hole list if the center of the RFH is within the area of the selected block.
