Hi,

it is possible to switch pattern tables using Family Table functionality. See attached part created in CR2 M070.

Hi MartinHanak,

Hi,

I do not understand your question "How can I switch pattern tables after launch?".

You can switch table, when you edit pattern feature.

Inside table_pattern.prt there is family table containing column with table name. This way you can set specific table for specific instance.

Hi MH,

Thank you for your speed answer.
How can I control two patterns tables with one family table ?
For example: If the first pattern = 1234, I want the second pattern = 1234, etc...

Thank you, and I hope you will understand me.

Hi,

if you need to switch tables for one pattern, then open my table_pattern.prt and open its family table.

1st instance uses TABLE1

2nd instance uses TABLE2

3rd instance uses TABLE3

If you need to switch tables for two patterns, then you have to create family table containing two columns, 1st column to set table for 1st pattern and 2nd column to set table for 2nd pattern.

Hi,

Yes I did it, but I would like that when I'm in the generic, and I change the 1st pattern, I would like the 2nd is updated automatically based on the first.

This is my table family.

Thank yours answers, and I hope you will understand me.

Hi,

I think you cannot create a relationship between table of 1st pattern and table of 2nd pattern inside Family table. It is up to you to enter table names properly.

Note:

You can use Reference pattern to create 2nd pattern, if it is related to 1st pattern. Round feature on the picture is created as Reference pattern in generic model. When I open instance of my model, round is created properly.
