Unlocking a part means getting rid of the formulas that are behind it and allowing you to override the details.
To ensure you do not accidentally modify the machining of a part, all parts are locked until specifically requested to Unlock before editing can take place.
The Revert command reimports the part from its original source library, bringing back all the original formulas and recalculates all values based on the part size and other properties.
The command button only becomes available when the part is unlocked.

The Bore command lets you insert a single drill hole.
The Multibore Inline command lets you insert multiple (a gang) of drill holes.
