3d Canvas Mounting Hole diameter

I am trying to export Step model of my PCB from 3d Canvas> Export.

The problem i am experiencing is that the Copper plating inside the mounting holes is shown thicker than it should be.

Example: I made a hole of 2mm diameter and in 3d canvas it is showing 1.6mm as internal diameter. As a result, the actual drill size of hole is not shown correctly. Can't find anything to control Copper thickness in pad file.

As an observation, Copper plating thickness is set to 20 percent of hole diameter.

They added the plating size to the hole and did not take into account that the hole size is after plating. I submitted a Case and it is supposed to be fixed in a newer version.
