Editing bolt circle diameter with Synchronous

Editing bolt circle diameter with Synchronous

(OP)
Hello everyone!

I realised that I don't know whether it is possible or not to edit bolt circle diameter with Synchronous technology. Say, if there are six hold lying on 100 mm diameter, and I want them to lie on 120 mm diameter. There is a workaround I am aware of - to delete 5 of the holes, then move remaining hole, then re-create pattern using Pattern face. But is it possible to do this directly with Synchronous, without deleting the holes - just recongise them as a pattern and shift altogether. NX10.

No you really can't.
It sure would be nice, maybe sometime in the future.
A workaround could be to scale only the faces of the six holes, using the BC center pt as the reference and by a factor of 1.2, then resize the holes (all at the same time) back to their original diameter.
