In Connect U12 the group hole command doesn't seem to be working. I select the boundary and then the first hole then when I try and hold down Ctrl and pick the next hole it doesn't allow me to select anything.
Hi Duncan,

I works fine with my CE U12 installation.
Alternatively you can select (add to Selection set) all elements that your want to group upfront, start Group Hole tool and to confirm the result. No individual elements selection is necessary in CE.
With regards,

Thanks Jan. I can get it to work by selecting everything but not by adding them individually as shown in the help file example.
Attached video shows what happens. I'm pressing Ctrl after the first hole is selected.https://communities.bentley.com/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/273/Recording-_2300_2.mp4
Why Element Selection is activated when Group Hole tool is finished? Are your user preferences set in some specific way? Group Hole to should remain active (asks for another element) by default.

Are all the shapes on the same plane, any message in the Message Center
I don't know. I've used Group Hole previous to U12 with normal behaviour. My preferences are the default. This happened to one of my users so then I tried it and had the same result.

test8.dgnThis is the test file I'm using.

No problem with the file, should be something with your configuration / workspace.
For me Group Holes works fine in this file. You already mentioned default preferences, is this happening for all users ? Have you tried no Workspace/workset ?
I'm testing with No Workspace / No workset. Can't really think what in user prefs might affect it.

I am curious about why Element Selection tool is started. Does it happen also for other tools or just for Group Hole? This is not MicroStation default behavior.
Did you try to delete upf to ensure it's not broken from any reason?
