Linear pattern help

Linear pattern help

Linear pattern help

(OP)
I have a slot that I need to pattern. The number of instances that I need to pattern is 11 with a distance of 1.125 between the slots. One end of the slot needs to stay on the same horizontal axis and the other end needs to shortenwith each instance by .0773". I'm pretty sure that this can be done but I'm not completely sure how to do it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

RE: Linear pattern help

Instead of using a Linear Pattern, try using either a Sketch Driven Pattern or Table Driven Pattern.

Thanks CBL I used the vary sketch feature and got the results I wanted. I guess I should have prefaced my post that I was using SW12. Thanks so much.
