Allright Allright, I lied I guess.

How ever- did you guys know that the wallhole ID only works if you have selected that you want the part you are saving to be an editable binary 3D part.

I didn't know. & I was saving it as non editable.

Your choices are editable GDL or binary, and yes, saving binary means a wallhole AND a slab at the same time.

Okay, now?

But for my first time through that with a full - not beta - Archicad 12, the preference WAS set to binary... Duh.

Oh, I guess you're right- So I guess I meant it needs to be Editable GDL.

Where can one chose to be editable or not?

In the Save As dialog box for library parts, at the bottom left corner there should be two tick box options: Save in Binary Format, and Create New Library Part. Do not check the first, do check the second. (This is looking at AC21, assuming AC20 is the same.)
