How do I copy a hole and pattern and paste with a new reference

Copy isn't in the right click drop down list.

Mirror doesn't work either, but there appears no way to reference a mid point when trying to copy a hole feature or hole with pattern. 

Wish to insert a copied hole with pattern without a sketched point also, ie paste and reference to an edge and so forth.

Not sure how to screen capture. Per instructions render changes the layout to not include the history.

Thanks Raymond

Here is a tutorial that explains how to create screencasts.

Your example exceeds that of any I have seen. I understand it better now.

I did not see how to copy an entire hole array with a new reference. As I understood it, is a manual recreation.  Need to be able to repeat for rib stiffeners 10 plus times on the same skin.

In the intervening time, I've become stumped.  I tried to move a hole by changing the referenced line dimension, but the hole created in the adjacent part did not realign. I've tried a couple of ways, still reviewing videos.

I'll revisit this, when I find out how to move holes and the holes in adjacent materials by changing a dimension.  I'm not the only one to need a bolt or rivet moved.

Thanks Beyond Force, I think this video would be a good addition to YT.

If you could make a screencast and explain what exactly you need, that will be very helpful.

Ben.
