Hi,
I think you will need to write a script to do this. You will need to work out what happens to the yarns in the area of the hole - are they continuous but deform to create a hole or do the yarns break in order to create it. I'm afraid that there are no functions built into TexGen to do this automatically.

Hope that helps,
Louise
