Hole Table has duplicate holes in the wrong location

I've been noticing some strange behaviour with hole tables since switching to 2015. When I create a hole table from a view, most of the holes will come in fine. A few of them have the leaders attached to points off in space, while others are calling in two holes from one feature in different locations. The possibility of calling out holes in the wrong location makes me reluctant to continue using hole tables.

 

The issue seems to occur most often where two holes or a hole and another feature intersect. I've attached some screenshots showing the detached leaders and false holes. Moving the leaders around will sometimes snap them to the correct location, but they always snap back. The leaders for the false holes are stuck where there's intersecting geometry.

We never noticed any issues like this before switching to 2015. I double checked that I do not have any extra features drawn in and we have had this pop up on multiple computers working on different projects. Any ideas what could be causing this? Thanks.

Would it be possible for you to post the .ipt and dwg/idw files you have shown. If no due to it being some you don't want viewed in public we can arrange something else.

 

Once we have the files we can interogate them to look at the issue.

I've already sort of repaired the original file, so I tried to recreate it with the attached part. I fixed the detached leader in my original file by changing the depths to prevent the pilot drills from intersecting. Once the intersection was gone everything started to behave normally. I placed the charts using the "View" version of the hole table selection. The attached file doesn't have the detached leader, but it did create the extra hole table entries. Is there any way to avoid this besides selecting each feature when creating the table?

Thank you for the files.

 

THis seems to be a new issue as i can't repeat it in past releases. I'm reporting this to our QA teams to be addressed.

 

In the meantime you may have to select the holes themself or check and seem to minimize the intersection of holes as that seem to be the cause of the issue.

 

Thank you for bring this to our attention.

Has anything been done to remedy this problem?  Yesterday our machine shop caught a potentially costly mistake on one of my prints that was a result of inproperlly called out holes on a hole chart.  The industry our company serves relies heavily on proper machining of intersecting holes and the absence of thru holes where depth is critical.

I have not seen any solutions to this problem.  Is anybody seeking a resolution?  This is a huge issue for our company.
