Replicate selected parts, faces, or features and arrange them in a row or grid pattern. Create new parts or modify existing parts by adding or removing material, or intersecting parts in its path. For information on creating circular patterns, see Circular Pattern. Linear pattern may also be used during an active sheet metal operation.

The Linear pattern feature replicates parts, features, or faces in a Part Studio along a linear path. This video shows how to pattern the tabs, slot, and Fillet features to create additional instances. Select the Linear pattern feature from the feature toolbar. Next, choose Feature pattern as the pattern type.

Select "reapply features" to regenerate the feature for each instance, instead of simply recreating the initial pattern instance. Select the feature to pattern from the Features list or from the graphics area. In this case, select multiple features to pattern the tabs, slots, and fillets. Next, select the Direction field and specify the Direction to pattern. Select a face or plane to pattern in the normal direction of the selected reference, or select an edge or linear sketch element to pattern along its direction. Adjust the distance between instances, and set the Instance count to 2. The Instance count includes the original seed feature. Reverse the pattern direction with the opposite direction arrow. Click the checkmark button to accept the linear pattern feature.

Add more cuts to the spindle. The first cut is centered, and more instances are required on either side. Select the Linear pattern feature and select Face pattern as the pattern type. Select all 3 faces of the cut to pattern. Next, select the right face of the sliding jaw to pattern normal to that face, and adjust the distance between instances. Adjust the Instance count as well. Check Centered to add an equal amount of instances to the left and right of the original faces. Add more instances by setting the Instance count to 18.

A red appearance is applied to the extra tooling body part near the jaw plate. Use this tooling body to remove geometry from the jaw plate and create a grip pattern. Select the Linear pattern feature utilizing the Part pattern option. Remove material by selecting the Remove option. Select the tooling body part as the Entity to pattern, select an edge for the Direction, change the Distance, and adjust the Instance count.

Check Skip instances to skip specific pattern instances. This can be helpful when encountering conflicting geometry or when specific instances should be excluded from the pattern. Onshape displays a selection point outlined in gray for each instance. You can skip an instance by selecting its respective selection point or using a box selection to select multiple instances to skip. The selection points of skipped instances are displayed with a red outline. Finally, specify the Merge scope of the pattern, or the part from which material is removed. In this case, specify the jaw plate.

A hole has been created to attach the jaw plate to the sliding jaw. To create more instances of the hole, select the Linear pattern feature and choose the Feature pattern type. Start by creating a pattern across the plate from left to right. Choose the hole to pattern, and select a linear edge in that direction. Set the Distance, Instance count, and reverse the direction using the opposite direction arrow. Check reapply features and skip the middle instance of the hole.

Another row of holes is required. Check Second direction, choose an edge from top to bottom, and input the Distance and Instance count. Use the Linear pattern feature to create several instances of features, faces, or parts parallel to a linear edge or normal to a planar face.

  2. 選擇「結果」操作類型：
    • New - Create new material that results in a new part.
    • Add - Create new material and add to the existing material.
    • Remove - Take material away from existing material.
    • Intersect - Leave material only where geometry overlaps.
  3. Select the pattern type:
    • Part - To pattern an individual part
    • Feature - To pattern a specific feature (or features) listed in the Feature list (an extrude, fillet, sweep, sketch, etc).
    • Face - To pattern a specific face on a specific part
  4. With focus on the Entities to pattern field, select entities to replicate into a pattern.

    When selecting Faces to pattern, the Create SelectionCreate Selection arrow icon can be useful to select related faces.

  5. Set focus in the Direction field, and then select an edge or face of the part or a Mate connector (implicit or explicit) along which to place the replicated pattern entities.
  6. 輸入每個複製圖元間的距離，然後輸入複製的數量，或是實例的數量 (所能使用的最少實例數是 1)。在工作區中選擇複製排列的方向 (下圖所示的強調顯示邊線)。
  7. Use Centered to make the seed instance/face/feature as the center of the pattern.

    In this case, the instance count is N instances from the seed (inclusive of the seed) in one direction and N instances from the seed (inclusive of the seed) in the other direction. With N being the number you enter in the Instance count field in the dialog:

  8. 選擇 [第二方向] 來在第二個方向上延伸複製排列；請選擇 [第二方向]。
  9. Check the Skip instances option to specify instances of the pattern to skip:
    • Click the instance's selection handle to add it to the list of instances to skip. The Skip instances list displays two numbers to indicate the instance: the first is the position from 0 in the first direction, and the second value is the position from 0 in the second direction.

    • Click the X next to the instance in the list to add it back to the Part Studio.
    • Click CLEAR to remove all instances from the Instances to skip list.
  10. (僅限「特徵複製排列」類型) 選擇「重新套用特徵」來為每個實例 (「實例數量」中指定的個數) 重新產生特徵，而不只是重新建立最初的複製排列實例。

複製排列鈑金零件；在此案例中選取了藍色的外牆：

在鈑金零件上「線性複製排列」的範例

在未選取「重新套用特徵」(更快速輕量的特徵複製排列) 的情況下，複製排列列於「特徵」清單 (擠出、圓角、掃掠、草圖等等) 中的一或多個特定特徵。無法在鈑金中使用此選項。

In the following example, the initial extrude was Up to next (bringing the extrude up to the face of the surface). Without Reapply features selected, the features patterned (extrude and fillet) are patterned from the initial features and not regenerated (so the Up to next does not update for each instance of the pattern):

未選用「重新套用特徵」的「成形至下一幾何」擠出的範例

Pattern a specific feature (or features) listed in the Feature list (an extrude, fillet, sweep, sketch, etc) with Reapply features selected. This is available for sheet metal.

在下方的範例中，最初的擠出是「成形至下一幾何」(擠出至曲面的面上)。在選取了「重新套用特徵」的情況下，會為複製排列中的每個實例重新產生複製的特徵 (擠出與圓角)，所以會將「成形至下一幾何」套用至複製排列中的各個實例上。

  • When selecting a face, edge, or Mate connector (implicit or explicit) to set the Direction, use the Directional arrows Opposite direction arrow icon to flip the result if necessary.
  • When you select a face, edge , or Mate connector (implicit or explicit) for the Direction, you are using the direction that is 'normal to' the face, edge, or Mate connector.
  • 當複製排列特徵時，您可以用任何順序選擇特徵清單中的任何項目。不論選擇的順序為何，會以出現在特徵清單中的順序來套用。
  • 如果您在特徵清單中選擇了一個複製排列，將會複製排列該複製排列，而非種子項目。若要包括種子項目，請同時選擇該項目。
  • 當複製排列一個布林特徵 (布林、分割等) 時，您必須同時選擇套用布林運算的特徵。
  • 當建立特徵複製排列時，會套用特徵的所有面向；例如，擠出特徵中的終止形態 (不同的是，面的複製排列不會辨識這類的差異)。

  • 如果為特徵複製排列啟用了「重新套用特徵」，會根據個別實例自動重新產生外部參考。

    In a sketch, the seed sketch dimensions and constraints to the origin or default plane will not be reapplied. You can use this behavior to scope which dimensions or constraints are reapplied within a pattern:

    • 您可以複製排列已標註尺寸或者與原點或預設平面有限制條件的草圖特徵，然後選擇不重新套用這些尺寸與限制條件。
    • 當在預設平面或原點重新套用特徵時，您也可以沿預設平面或原點建立明確的建構草圖。

  • If Mate connectors are Part patterned in a Part Studio, they will all be added to the Assembly when the Part Studio is inserted. If you don't see your Mate connectors when the Part Studio is inserted into the Assembly, make sure the Part is listed as the Mate connector owner entity.
