Hi! With the "hole" tool you can always pick the center of the piece, so it does not matter if you change the height, it will always positioned at the center.

see attached. fully constraining your sketches will help.  click on the dims to change the height.  second sketch is the key to getting the holes to change position in this case

Sketch 8 was not fully defined, and has to be to make Fusion work with paramater changes.

Change the extrude height the holes will follow, change the face width the holes will stay centred.

You needed more constraints to get it done.

You should make a parameter

Also if you want to change the "8.5" dimensions you can make another parameter too

Now the holes will move, but that's due I add the dimensions to the midline on the sketch. 🙂 Check the file

Dear Dave, that is not the discussion. He knows how to define a sketch. Focus on the problem.

Neither of his sketches are fully defined.  Parameter changes did not work for him, 

There is another problem?

🙄 

 I try people understand by themselves the software and discover it. I think he knows, if not he'll ask about it. 

 

And.. well if he did not... congratulations he knows now. Another solution for you Is that what are you looking for?

The evidence would clearly indicate otherwise.

Did you reply to the correct thread?
