Hi Michael,

Is this in 4.0.*?  Is the hole the same size as the pad?  If so it’s a known bug that is fixed in 5.0.

If not then we’d love to get a cut-down version of the board.

Cheers,
Jeff.

I have a PCB that has a NPH hole located off the board, I can't see it or select it inside PCBNew, however, it gets a hole in the gerbers and I can find it in the kicad_pcb file if I open the file with a text editor.
