Create a Cut Extrude pattern automatically
Creating a pattern from Cut-Extrude holes when adding a new fastener is almost identical to adding a single fastener.
- Open an assembly
- Click Add Fastener in the Lightning toolbar
- Select a type, size and material
- Select a washer type or select None
- Drag the fastener file in your assembly from the Create Pattern button.
Pattern the added fastener automatically
After you drag the file into your assembly (and we optionally add a washer), we add a fastener (+washer) to every identical hole in the same feature with the same top face. We cannot create a real component pattern like we do with Hole Wizard holes, so we add each bolt separately.
For this to work, you need to drag the file onto a circular Cut-Extrude hole and the bolt needs to snap in place with Mate References.
