Skylights & Holes are created in a similar way in the Visual View using the Skylight & Hole Drawing-modes respectively.

Click the Draw Skylight or Draw Hole buttons to enter the require drawing-mode or use the keyboard shortcuts K for skylights, and H for holes.

Holes are always drawn on the parent floor of the zone that they penetrate.

You can draw Holes & Skylights in rectangular or polygon line by line submodes, and for Skylights, you can additionally draw in circular submode too.

Skylights & holes are drawn similar to Zones, using the same left-click & right-click features, manual dimensions & shift-key straight line features. Please refer to the General Drawing-Mode and Zone Drawing tutorial videos for a refresher on these functions.

When drawing in circular skylight submode, the first click should be made at the centre of the circular skylight, and then move the mouse out towards the edge of the skylight. When entering manual dimensions during this submode, the dimensions entered should be the radius of the skylight.
