Morning folks,
Okay...working with a client running WF2. I was given the challenge to come up with a methodof placing differing (geometric) boss configurations on their parts. For example, one version has a chamfered lead in, another does not. One version has structural ribs at 90 degrees to the world, another has them at 45 degrees. And so on....
That task was easy.....I chose to use the UDF. Geometry changes within each "version" were merely dim changes and turning features on and off. It seemed perfect for a UDF
The challenge was to come up with a method that used only one assembly reference. The partsare large plastic pieces and havemultiple bosses for attachement.After a little pain, I figured out a method to do that using only one coordinate system for placing the UDF. Task two complete!
Now...this issue. I can't pattern the darn UDF as a reference pattern on the coordinate system pattern. What the...?
Now the question.... Is it possible to pattern a UDF as a reference, or pattern a UDF at all? If not, should I have known this before accepting the challenge? 🙂
Thanks
