Hi,
I've an hexagon sketch that is extruded.
This hexagon cut is patterned with variational option.
The sketch is outside the extrusion.
It's possible edit some instance sketch dimensions in the manner that the hexagon dimension can edited in some instance ?

Thank you...

You can utilize syncronous modeiling for that, but not really in the way that you want.
The simplist way to do it would be to use offset.
 
If the sketch is inside the extrusion, it's possible, but not external.
I can't make the sketch internal because has the path for the pattern used after.
Next time I will separate the profile from the path sketch.

Thank you
