7805 voltage regulator makes a "hole" in PCB

Hi folks,
I’m an absolut beginer in fritzing and fritzingfab.
I do many thinks by lerning by doing and trial and error.
After receiving the PCBs I was a bit … “angry” - okay about me

But now to my question: I want to install the 7805 upwards, but fritzing only “allows” lying.
So the 7805 creates the hole (for mounting the heat sink) on the PCB.

I tried many options (cancel only the 7805), than the holes for the pins are missing, the editor, but the hole is not removable.

How can I make the PCB without the hole (in my first try it destroyed a trace).

Thanks
“Stevie”
