CirPattern

[ruinder]

I am trying to circlular pattern a swept solid.When i go and put in the axis and the features to pattern , the preview shows exactly what i am trying to achieve.However when i accept the preview sweeps disappaer and the cirpattern is on my tree.So i can edit it, but its as if i never even did it.Can anyone help me with some suggestions??
Thanks Rui

Doing the circular pattern - will it result in Multi-bodies or not?

Ahhh, I see where you are going Scott.
It appears that multi-bodies of sweeps are not supported in the Circular pattern function. (SW04)

If you create a feature which has interference with all the patterned sweeps, then they can be created as one merged part. Without the "joining" feature they cannot be created ... but no error message is given by SW.

& all the best.
