2005 linear pattern editing for muliple configurations

2005 linear pattern editing for muliple configurations

2005 linear pattern editing for muliple configurations

(OP)
How do I edit a linear pattern for multiple configurations in 2005?  In prior releases you would simply DBL click the pattern feature which in turn would display the driving dimension variables which you could edit for this configuration.  This functionally is no longer available for 2005?  Does anyone know how to do this?

RE: 2005 linear pattern editing for muliple configurations

This has been discussed several times here.  What you want to do is possible in SW 2005 SP 1.1, but unavailable since then.  The only workaround I know of is to right click the Annotations folder, check "Show Feature Dimensions", and make sure that "Display Annotations" is also checked.

RE: 2005 linear pattern editing for muliple configurations

I have used a design table for linear patterns as a work around until it is fixed.

Enter these as columns(where LocalLPattern1 is the feature name):

D1@LocalLPattern1 which is the number of instances in direction 1
D3@LocalLPattern1 which is spacing in direction 1
D2@LocalLPattern1 which is the number of instances in direction 2
D4@LocalLPattern1 which is spacing in direction 2
