Assemblies
(OP)
In root product, I have created a product ( say A ) and created a plate. In that plate I have created a hole and patterned it to 4 holes.
Then in the root product I have created another product ( say B ). I have created a pin in this product at the centre of the hole created in Product A.
When I want to reuse the pattern created in Product A for placing the pin at all the 4 holes, the pattern is not getting selected.
What is the procedure to do it. Any setting to be done in options

RE: Assemblies
In order to reuse the pattern to duplicate the Pin part:
a. make both sub-assemblies flexible
b. activate the root assembly
c. constrain the first Pin part to one of the holes in the pattern
then use the Reuse Pattern tool.
RE: Assemblies
Thanks for the reply.
In sub assy A, I have a plate with 4 holes.
In sub assy B, I have a pin. I want to place the pin at all the 4 places in the location of the plate in sub assy A.
If we do as per the procedure told by you the patterned pins are coming in the root assy but not with in the sub assy B. I need the patterned pins with in the sub assy B as per the pattern in sub assy A.
Please help out
RE: Assemblies
A. Copy the Plate part from sub-assy A and paste it into sub-assy B
B. Hide the Plate part in sub-assy A, and show it in sub-assy B
C. Make sub-assy B active (double-click to make it blue in the tree)
D. INSERT + REUSE PATTERN
E. Hide the Plate part in sub-assy B, and show it in sub-assy A
I think this is what you want, but I would not do it this way.

Thanks for the reply.
The picture sent by you is what I want.
But the procedure of copying Plate from sub assy A and pasting in sub assy B, cannot be used practically.
Because I want to use this in multiple plates.
In that case, I will have to copy all the plates from sub assy A to sub assy B. This is impractical.
Thanks for the help
