Hi...
Does anyone know how to update a group pattern after the parent group has included a new feature (eg. cut, round...) to the group??? (in 2001 and WF)
When i try to do, it cannot be done. For example, i create a protrusion and then a cut. Then, i put them in one group and pattern. Everything is ok. Now i create another cut at the first protrusion.
How do i include the second cut feature into the group and update the pattern accordingly???
i think you will not be able to redefine a group and add new features to it. you may have to delete ungroup and create a new group to include the new feature.
however, if you have a pattern of a group and want a new feature to be part of the pattern, you can create the new feature and then pattern using the reference option. this would create apattern of the new feature over the existing group pattern. this might help if you do not want to delete the existing features.
