[Mi...] Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Is it possible to drive a formula calculation off of just one element of a pattern? Like if I need to get the x-position of the second hole in a bolt circle. The formula window doesn't look like it even acknowledges the existence of the pattern, and behaves like it's just referencing the first element.

How to pull just a single axis for a single feature from the position I am not sure about. If you want the support data for every hole in the pattern go to Resources/Characteristic Setting Editor/Additional Report and in the set to drop down turn it on for the position or the entire measurement plan to see the support data.

[Ma...] Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 I have tried unsuccessfully to do this too. The only way I was able to access the results of patterned features with formula was to recreate an individual feature for each of the pattern features with recall feature points. Definitely not an elegant solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
