Pro/E pattern spacing dims
Pro/E pattern spacing dims
(OP)
I am looking for a way to dimension the spacing between holes etc. on pattened features, I can show the dims for the spacing, I would like to use the "&P" value for the number of pattern features in an equation to show the number of spaces between features.
Example: a pattern (P1=5)of 5 holes one inch (d2=1.000)apart has 4 one inch spaces. I'd like to make a parametric note in the dimension stating (&p1-1 x) d2 but I can't seem to get the syntax correct to get it to show: (4 x) 1.000
I hope I explained it well enough if not I can repost

RE: Pro/E pattern spacing dims
Add the relation:
spaces = &p1 - 1
And your note syntax:
(&spaces x) d2
Hope that's what you need.

I thought about doing it that way but I was hoping to do it without another parameter.
Thanks again,
