Pattern in Part environment

Is there a way to create pattern in two opposite directions by using plane as directional reference with varying members and spacing? See attach image, I have 5 members at 200 spacing in one direction and want 6 members at 250 in exactly opposite direction.

Yes, it is possible. The easiest implementation is to use a pattern table. Creo 7 model enclosed as an example.

This pattern is possible if you use dimensional pattern and relations:

In the example above, the pattern is controlled by changing the parameters of feature "PNT0"

 

Feature relation:

Pattern definition and relation:

Note: this is probably not easy to understand for (novice) end-users.

The parameters and the feature relation could have been defined at part level.

But the pattern relation has to be buried inside the pattern definition.
