mirror hole wizrd features

[grunt58]

How come when i mirror hole wizard features on my drawings it only displays half the amount? I understand that the mirror is controling the other half but isn't solidworks "smart" enough to figure that out? How do poeple deal with this issue in drawings is there a setting?

Currentyl I manualy overide the number in the hole call out but don't like that as it puts it in my hands to update the hole callout if there's a rev.

thanks.

I don't mirror hole wizard features. I can usually get the same effect by mirroring the sketch points inside the locating sketch.

This is something that our company noticed quite a while ago. I may be wrong but I do believe it was classified as a limitation and I'm almost certain it was submitted as an ER, however I have yet to see it work.

Possible suggestion would be to either pattern the hole feature or as handleman pointed out locating the points in the sketch.
