Linear pattern crash FC rc1. stays difficult: some files enclosed - how can I pattern my first "wall" around the "normal sketch axis"? I was thinking that I was just using this axis for the polar pattern. Usage. I thought linear means that each occurrence of the repeated item is equally spaced apart hence linear spacings. The PartDesign pattern is only to pattern feature of a body. Forum rules I've then added a pocket and used a linear pattern to create multiple pockets, but as soon as I create the linear pattern artefacts are visible in the model and when exported. Hi, I'm trying to use linear pattern feature for the first time. A pattern cannot be applied directly to another pattern, be it polar, linear or a mirror.

Even though I have followed FreeCAD 0. zip In case it is not totally clear, it is the small teeth at the end of the overall shape that are becoming detached at certain lengths for the Linear Pattern. Using the draft workbench But if I use the tool "Linear Patter" from the part workbench, it only I have a body with an element in this that linear pattern is applied to, but this linear pattern causes other part of the body to disappear, the base of the pattern to be shown and I have tried using linear patterns, and they don't work well. Forum rules then linear pattern to get 50 shingles along x axis. The distance parameter measures to the beginning of the last copied object not the Description. They are not visible. Secondly I do not know why there needs to be a tool for straight lines and one for curved lines. ) I would split this into two transformation. I've included a picture. Linear pattern is just a clone with multiple steps, manually copying the geometry and applying geometry constraints yields the The problem is, that linear patterns can't be patterned again. I need to create duplicates of a part at set intervals between two points - the same process as a linear pattern. As I almost guessed: you have only one body, but you have more than one solid and you tried with the linear pattern to create another instance of the cylinder which was not connected to the rest of the body. Because it seems a bit convoluted. In that case the polar array would work. Is this possible? If not, how best to accomplish?

Patterning in grids or around an axis is easy with linear patterns, mirrors, or polar patterns, but I'm looking for a way to combine these patterns (as opposed to doing then sequentially like the multi-transform tool 3) If I'm trying to do a linear pattern of 2 rectangles in my sketch, when I first place the linear pattern at some angle slightly off 0 degrees (like, 6 degrees), and then double click the angle constraint to change it to 0, it aligns the linear pattern for one of the rectangles, but not the other!

Hi, I'm new to the forum and I need to know how to apply a linear pattern to a body or a pad because I've tried to use the linear pattern feature over the pad and it doesn't behave as expected. 22. So I tried to make a 'X' shaped section 23. This forum has been very helpful in solving some of my issues. The selected transformation is added to the list and the settings for the transformation are displayed below the list. When using Linear Pattern, only the base object is displayed.
