Please Add Start Plane Options To Hole Tool In "From Sketch" Mode

[therealsamchaney]

Hi, I prefer using the Hole tool to just doing simple extrudes for a few reasons, but the "From Sketch" mode is lacking a couple options that hold it back significantly. These exist in the Extrude tool already has so it doesn't seem like it would be a big development effort to adapt them for the Hole tool:

• Needs Start plane options
  • Offset
  • From Object

Often, I will have a sketch defining points where holes should go but the body that the holes need to go in isn't flat so the "from object" option would be incredibly useful. Currently, Fusion assumes all holes are coplanar to the sketch plane, requiring you to use a new sketch for any hole that's on a different plane, even if the planes are parallel.

Thanks!

@therealsamchaney Thank you for proving valuable feedback. These options are a good value addition to the Hole operation. I have created an enhancement request and assigned it to the concerned team.

Once again, appreciate your effort in developing the software.

Any updates on this? I think this is an incredibly valuable feature since the hole operation is one of the most commonly used features.
