In this current implementation is a feature to "load and render it faster".
The remove of the holes from the zones needs a lot of cpu time.

You can experiment it with a big board (ex: the video board in the demo files from the kicad) and see the differences.

Whoops, sorry for the noise. How can I be so stupid ? Moreover, almost
all 3Dviewer menus are not translated, and this only one is in french
!   ... May be this is why I did not spotted it ?

What is the purpose of this option ? What is the point of not showing
the holes in zones ?
