Hi All

 

i have a weird behavior within a pattern.

i created a sketch with points in each corner. 

on the top left, i created a slot hole with the direction as shown in picture. then i use the pattern command to pattern on the points of the sketch. 

the bottom right slot hole changes the direction. why does this happen?

Are your points relative to the side of the slot.

It looks like the bottom right slot is rotated also.

Hi
no, the rest is ok (slot hole horizontal) only the right bottom one is rotated by 90°

Are you patterning 1 point 8X or 2 points 4X?
