Solid tool operation on multiple solids

[newnoob]

Hi, I would like to subtract an array of several thousands cylinders from a panel like geometry (bottom of a box to perforate the box) but I just realised that I can't do that with the solid tools because I would have to subtract each cylinder one by one, which would be a several hours taking pain in the as.

How can I subtract all the cylinders all at once ? Thank you for your answers.

place all the solid cylinders into a group

enter the group and explode all the group solids

exit the group and subtract

[Box]

Or array the holes.

Or use a hole component to reduce the model size...

or use a texture on a simple plane... but that's not an answer to your original question.
