how to explode pattern by vba

If I have many rect. and circ. patterns in partbody
can I explode all by one click?
or should I manually select each pattern and explode ;(

Hi !

Have you tried Edit / Search and then Select. Finally Explode selected.
By Search dialog you can even save favorite searches.

in vba search for all the patterns and cycle through them exploding as you go
Personally I do not like explode pattern as it creates isolated sketch supports for all the exploded entities, but you may not need to worry about this
