Hole on a face in smooth solid mode

Hi All, How can i create a hole on a face when in smooth solid mode ?

  • Please provide the Product and Version number being used. 

    It would appear from the image alone, that you have already managed to place Hole Features on the solid, so what exactly is the issue your experiencing?

    Is it that you cant see the Hole being placed, having selected the Solid in a View that has a Smooth Display Style applied, but is fine if Wireframe Display Style is used?

    Could it be related to Highlight / Selection color matching that of the solid? (See Preferences>View Options)

    Is it that having selected the Solid nothing happens?

    Perhaps the specified Diameter: in the Tool Setting, is larger than the Solid, 

    Perhaps the issue is related to the location of the Solid, is it close to the Models Global Origin

    May be you have opened a third party file where the Solid already exists with Holes. 

    What type of Solid is it?

    What format is the file? ( DGN / DWG )

    Is the Solid in the active Model? (It might be in a Reference which you will need to open to perform the operation)

    Is the Solid perhaps locked. (Select the Solid and check the Properties)

    If possible please provide the file for others to review and further describe the steps taken, problem experienced.

    Thanks
