Question:
I am trying to add holes in a tube using the bolt command, but why they are not exported to the tube NC (XML) file?
Answer:
This is a limitation in the Tube NC export. As a workaround for creating round holes, you need to model round "dummy" part and use the Tube-Saddle+Hole component for tube and dummy part to create the cut. The component Tube-Slotted Hole does not work for round profiles.
