Hole pattern dissappearing
Hole pattern dissappearing
(OP)
Hello all,
I am trying to insert a circular pattern of a tapped hole under the assembly feature option but for some reason it is only patterning the dashed line for the threaded hole. I am using SW 2007 sp5.0.
Thanks in advance,
BB

Maybe try to pattern the blocks and the tapped hole in the same pattern.

Or just zip and upload the files for review?

Or use the Selected components option but make sure you select all the blocks.
Neither of these settings make sense to me though, because when the feature scope is set, the hole pattern does not exist.

Here's how to re-create this issue. Don't forget step 3. It's most important.
1. Create a multibody part.
2. Create assembly feature on said part
3. Say "Oh crap, this isn't actually multibody because I forgot to clear the "Merge result" checkbox."
4. Edit part and clear the "Merge result" checkbox
5. Say "Oh crap, where did my holes go?"
I'm pretty much an expert at step 3.

I find it strange though that the Feature Scope needs to be set at the placement of the seed assy hole feature ... before the assy hole pattern is placed. The Cosmetic thread is patterned correctly without need of the scope, so why not the hole itself?
