Edit Part Geometry in a Pattern

If you edit the geometry of a link part in a pattern, all parts with the same name will be updated. You can recognize a link part in the assembly tree by its L extension.

  1. Do either of the following:
    • Select a part in the pattern and then select the context-sensitive function Edit.
    • Double-click the part.
  2. Edit the geometry of the part.
  3. Click OK.

Changing the Size of a Library Component in a Pattern

If you change the size of a library component, all components with the same name will be updated in the pattern.

  1. Do either of the following:
    • Select a component in the pattern and then select the context-sensitive function Edit.
    • Double-click a component.
  2. Select a new size for the library component from the dimension table or edit the values in the fields.
  3. Click OK.
Note:
  • If the components of the pattern are local parts, you can edit individual pattern parts so that they are different from each other. Local parts do not have the L extension in the assembly tree.
