automate pattern tables
automate pattern tables
(OP)
I used the faq in the forum that automates pro engineer models thru the use of excel.
Here is the link

I can do this for simple dimensions that are in a sketch. But I would like to do this for making several patterns per model.
Q.
Is there a way to automate the creation of patterns through the use of pattern tables?
Thanks,
Tazengr

RE: automate pattern tables
Also remember that an Identical pattern can be converted to General pattern governed by a table. The table is created by Pro/E in the conversion. In this way you can delete or suppress members of the pattern (except, maybe, the leading feature). That can't be done with an Identical pattern.

I also found a good article that uses if statements under RELATIONS to dictate which pattern the model will use.
Here is the link.
