Editing holes

Every hole has four status flags that are stored in the "hole function". The "hole function" of a hole is a four digit code with the following meaning:

Properties of the hole function
Hole function	1st digit	2nd digit	3rd digit	4th digit
	Created By	Approved	Piping Lock	Hull Lock
Value and meaning	1 = Plant Modeller	1 = Not approved	1 = Not locked by CADMATIC Hull	1 = Locked by Plant Modeller
	0 = CADMATIC Hull	0 = Approved	0 = Locked by CADMATIC Hull	0 = Not locked by Plant Modeller

The status can be seen by querying the status of the hole object.

In CADMATIC Hull you can enable the "Piping or Approved lock" setting. By default these are disabled. These settings can be found in the System Management application via Construction > Holes. When you enable these locks it means that you are not allowed to edit the hole in CADMATIC Outfitting if the hole is locked by CADMATIC Hull or approved (by CADMATIC Hull).
