Copy holes 1

[sldwrksrobotics]

Within the hole wizard is there a way to copy the sketch (construction lines with relations) for hole locations/pattern and paste to a second location?

You can copy the Sketch and paste it someplace else, but it is iffy since you will not have any relations.

sldwrksrobotics,

I do not understand what you are trying to do and why. Are you trying to create multiple instances of a Hole Wizard hole? Are these holes on different planes?

If you provide more detail you are likely to get a great suggestion.

I would have liked to copy one fully defined pattern within the hole wizard to a second location. What I had to do was to duplicate the hole placement pattern and dimensions to a second location on the same plane.

You can create a pattern of the pattern, or 'Ctrl+C'/'Ctrl+V' in the sketch environment. If it's symmetrical, you could mirror it.

'Ctrl+C'/'Ctrl+V' does not work

You can copy and paste the sketch, but not in the wizard.

Thanks I wondered if I was missing something.

Or copy and paste the feature and/or its pattern.

Updraft, thanks, never thought of doing that. Copied from one part to another, then rebuilt the relations.
