Hi Y'all,

I have a case where I need to create a circular pattern on a face which is 20° to the vector I want the feature on. In other words, I want to create a circular pattern of a feature but have that feature remain congruent to a vector which is not the axis of the circle.

How would I do this?

OK, I'm an idiot. Pattern > Along > Offset did exactly what I wanted with no need to select the 20° angle.
