I have a bunch of wireframe bolt hole circles. It would be nice to be able to select all of the wireframe bolt hole circles at once and use extrude cut body on all of them so they cut through the solid. Right now I chain the wireframe bolt hole circles by single selecting each one. Some of the bolt holes will work and cut thorough the solid body and some will not if I try and do them all at once. The only way I can get all the holes to cut through with Extrude Cut Body is by selecting each wireframe circle individually and using Extrude Cut Body on them one at a time. I would rather do them all at once. I notice that some holes have the chaining arrow pointing the wrong way and need to be reversed. What causes this and is there a better way to use Extrude Cut Body on all the wireframe bolt holes at once rather than one at a time?

Have you tired using the window function when grabbing the chains? This will most times keep the chains all going in the right direction. Also in the solid Parameters you can pick both directions and if it will not hurt another direction of the part this will also solve chains going the wrong direction.
