fyi...I submitted an ER for Hole Wizard to have a "Both Ends" option for through all holes.

When creating a through hole using hole wizard, it would be very useful to have a "Both Ends" option.  For instance, a taper thread hole...by selecting the end condition of "through all" for the tap drill, a "Both Ends" check box beside the the "Threads" would be available.  If the box is checked, the system would apply the tap to both ends of the hole.  In the case of counterbored holes, the counterbore could be applied to both ends of a through hole.  (And when SW's creates a counterbore option for tapped holes, the counterbore & tap could be applied to both ends...when the tap drill end condition is set to "through all".)

ER# 1-2159576393

If you would find this functionality to be useful, let SW know.
