Can't select a circle to use in a circular pattern

I have a part that is a circle extruded into a cylinder. The part has a small hole that was remove-extruded to create. I choose the circular pattern tool, but it won't allow me to select the small hole  (or its remove-extrusion) to pattern. Very frustrating! What am I doing wrong?

    aarghhh! When I try to select the hole extrusion, It only selects "Face of WholeDisk"

    OK, Got it. When I put the part in isometric view, I could select the extrusion. Thank you very much.

    Hello, I have troubles using circular pattern (Polygon script, lines 105-112)
    https://cad.onshape.com/documents/63ac63e22b67bfd0a5feb626/w/08d5364eed7c679bfee20064/e/b16b07354514ebb5092fcd5b

    Feature creates bodies "Part 3" to "Part 7", but does not circle them along 96: skCircle(skits3, "ring1", ...
    I created two variables for transforming - 102-103: trass and trajektoor, but unsuccessfully
    I tried also use of 116: opTransform, but I'm not very familiar with Featurescript objects.

    Correct version of "handmade" sample polygon appears on Polygon design sheet. 

    EDIT: the solution:
            curvePattern(context, id + "curvePattern1", {
                    "patternType" : PatternType.PART,
                    "entities" : qCreatedBy(id + "loft2", EntityType.BODY),
                    "edges" : trass,
                    "instanceCount" : definition.NurkadeArv   });
