PYTHA Workshop - Removing Ghost Points

PYTHA Workshop - Removing Ghost Points

Occasionally moving parts that have Type Automatic bore holes can create additional points, such as those shown in the image below. These points lose their connection to the original bore holes and can't be deleted using the usual Workshop > Bore Holes > Edit functions "Delete Single" and "Delete All".

           

To remove these ghost points, open the Workshop menu from the PYTHA menu bar and select the option "SOS - Cleanup boreholes". When asked by PYTHA if you want to "Really cleanup boreholes?", click "Yes" to remove any disassociated bore hole points.

           

Note: This function is only available in PYTHA 25 and above. If you do not see this option in your Workshop menu, you may need to update PYTHA to the latest version. For more information on how to do this, please see the following article from our Knowledge Base: Updating your PYTHA Software (PYTHA 25 and Above)
