Re: Creating a textured station platform surface
Found reference file Snips for LinearPattern and LinearPatternoo1 Edit I shall hold off re-trying the formula until I get the all clear, ThanksPeterSD wrote: ↑Sat Jan 15, 2022 12:46 amThanks for that.

Re: Creating a textured station platform surface
Make it LinearPattern.Occurrences or LinearPattern001.Occurrences.
Re: Creating a textured station platform surface
Thanks very much, I shall try that in the formula and post another reply here.TheMarkster wrote: ↑Sat Jan 15, 2022 3:11 am Make it LinearPattern.Occurrences or LinearPattern001.Occurrences.

UPDATE
I changed the formula for both. It allowed me to update but when I go back, I find the formula has reverted to what it was.
I have limited this action to the reference file at this time
Re: Creating a textured station platform surface
Coming back to my file. I have now successfully entered the formula into both LinearPattern features and up issued the file to Rev 3.3.
Kind Regards
Peter
The reasons for the previous failures were all mine.

Re: Creating a textured station platform surface
In 0.20.27008, 'LinerPattern.Occurences' will be automatically changed to 'Occurences'.TheMarkster wrote: ↑Sat Jan 15, 2022 12:35 am Occurrences should probably have something in front of it, like Constraints.Occurrences, Spreadsheet.Occurrences, etc.

Re: Creating a textured station platform surface
PartDesign_LinearPattern
Your construction tree let me think you need only MultiTransform (like in my perfect file ).A LinearPattern cannot be applied directly to another pattern, be it polar, linear or a mirror. For this you need a PartDesign MultiTransform..

Re: Creating a textured station platform surface
I thought that this oicture might help understand what is going on.
The formula makes this length 12.6
Something similar must be happening along the Y axis but I have not checked this yet.
The first two steps in the x-axis would be fixed by sketch002 and everything else would be determined by the formula. There appears to be a 4mm reduction in step for the next pair of steps. That is the distance travelled on the X axis to of the second pair. The length should be 16 +1.2=17.2The formula makes this length 12.6

Re: Creating a textured station platform surface
Your sketch is bad imperfect :
* Zero-dimension : try always to replace a dimension with a geometry when it's possible.
* 6-dimension : if this 6 is the half ot the 12, geometry should translate this (like in my sketch ).

Re: Creating a textured station platform surface
Thanks for that. I had replied to that suggestion early this morning to TheMarkster having proven just that is the case.It reverted to just 'Occurances' as you have said.Shalmeneser wrote: ↑Sat Jan 15, 2022 5:47 pmIn 0.20.27008, 'LinerPattern.Occurences' will be automatically changed to 'Occurences'.TheMarkster wrote: ↑Sat Jan 15, 2022 12:35 am Occurrences should probably have something in front of it, like Constraints.Occurrences, Spreadsheet.Occurrences, etc.
