Fix your PCB tight and secure to the frontpanel from behind.
That's the way you proceed:
First update your TARGET 3001! version free of charge (menu Help/Free Update). Then renew the database by the menu "Update" in the database browser. This is free of charge as well. Close all dialogs and open a front panel project. Now open the component database by clicking this milling tool in the frontpanel toolbar:
If the milling tool bar does not show please find it in menu View/Toolbars/Frontpanel toolbar visible
In the database find the bolts named CHC (= bolts) or CSS (= bushings).

It is most easy to place the bolt superimposed to a mounting drill hole in the PCB layout having the same center:

Though the bolt is drawn to the face of the front panel design, the Panel Pool team correctly will construct it from behind. The face of the front panel stays untouched at this point.
