Hole callouts don't work for mirrored holes in nx 9 drafting

Hole callouts don't work for mirrored holes in nx 9 drafting

Hole callouts don't work for mirrored holes in nx 9 drafting

(OP)
When I make drawings in NX I usually try to import the hole callouts for holes I created with the hole tool using the radial dimension tool. Unfortunately in instances where I mirrored holes it won't let me select them with the hole callout feature selected. I can only do inferred which just gives me diameter. Is there a way around this? Thanks

No, you would have to make the holes a "pattern", and not simply a mirror.

Even the pattern only works with the first hole in the series
