Number of patterned components incorrect
Number of patterned components incorrect
(OP)
Good morning, hope all is great.
We are having a problem...
We create a derived component pattern of bolts, using a hole wizard feature that has 4 holes. We are patterning 1 bolt (seed component). We expect to see 4 bolts in total after we create the pattern, but instead there are 5 bolts (1 seed + 4 patterned components). This is incorrect.
Has anyone run into something like this?

RE: Number of patterned components incorrect
Are you placing the bolt in the "seed" hole and then creating the component pattern using the HW sketch pattern? Or using the Smart Fastener function?
RE: Number of patterned components incorrect
No, there are only 4 points (i.e. no extra multiple points).

The extra component is in the same location as the first sketch point of the location sketch in the Hole feature.
cheers,

You are right! Hope they fix that soon.
In the meantime, there are work arounds.
